I like to run on the state forest roads around my home. I like to run with my wife (a veteran runner who tolerates my slow pace) and our dog. Saturday morning runs with the dog are for us 50 year olds what some folks call "date nights".
This morning out deep in the forest there was a truck pulled off on the side. Not that unusual this time of year for a hunter to be out checking things out for the up coming hunting seasons. A little early, but not unusual. One of great things about running in teh woods is that when nature calls you can answer. At the end of my run I stepped over to the side of the road and was about to take care of business when I looked up to see the driver of the truck. Not a hunter but a guy with a metal detector working his way along the base of a stone wall that once marked the edge of these overgrown farmer's fields. I recovered quickly enough so that it was only a partial not a Full Monty.
In a few weeks the road I was running on will look like this:
