My chance to walk came quite late last night, but, I needed to walk the challenge and get my miles in for the day. Sort of like killing two birds with one stone. But, seriously, I would never kill a bird. Who made up that saying?

The first thing I see when I step out the door and onto the pavement are lilies. Dozens of them in different colors.

They are glorious! I love to make my way to the Civil War Battlefield, but today, I will go a different way, just to get a different view for you. There are dozens of different ways to get there.

Of course, the first thing I have blocking my sidewalk is the Canadian Geese encounter. They have what seems like a dozen babies at a time and they are the cutest things ever! I am always afraid mama Goose is going to run after me, but, so far, they have remained docile.

Oh, the rain we had the other day has brought out the fungus among us. Everywhere there was mulch, the little 'shroons came popping up. How is it possible for them to sprout up overnight?And yet, they do.

And flowers. It makes the flowers smile. I guess it can't be all bad.

The evergreens are busy with the production of pinecones, small and green, just starting their life. I love how fresh and green everything seems to be. There is still the newness of Spring hovering over. Breathe deeply! Inhale it and savor it.

A woodland walk among the trees
Guided by the gentlest breeze
Oh, beauty!

You can tell that I am wandering through the forest in the battlefield. It is filled with trees that are ginormous. My favorite view! Straight up into the sky!

The seasons of life
Has passed through
An all-knowing sense
Of truth as I know it

This battlefield holds many truths and many soldiers. Walk carefully among the fallen, for we know not where they lie. I say a prayer to myself and make my way back home.

I am done with my walk for this Wednesday and glad you could come along. I would like to see where you walked today and see what you got to see. I hope you had a fabulous time and I think we should meet up here again next week! Until then, keep on smiling~!!

Don't ever forget what a wonderful world we live in, people. Let's hold hands around the globe and make this earth really spin. Some days, it is not as easy to see, so we must try harder to give everyone the proper focus.

Beautiful place and subject you have selected for Wednesday walk, but i have failed to register my post on this tag! Ok, i will think about it deeply.

Beautiful walk Denise and lovely narrative!! I especially loved the words on the battlefield..so true and poignant!! Flowers and geese are awesome too!!

Thank you so much! I really love these Wednesday walks!

Beautiful lilies! Those trees are so tall and majestic. A suitable place to make a final resting place. A nice and peaceful place for a walk. Thanks for sharing, @dswigle.

Oh, Thank you so much for the visit, @cecicastor! xo

Better not walk then :D Go the other way.

This post made me smile - the beauty of the flowers, the geese, even that tiny streak of rainbow in the second to the last photo.

Oh look at the delectable colors! Hey thanks for the reminder of this tag. I should jump in!

Beautiful shots! I love nature it is so powerful! :)

Excellent post dear friend @dswigle, I loved the story of your walk, judging by the images was an incredible ride, congratulations for your choice of walk, there is nothing more charming than being in contact with nature.
I wish you a wonderful day

Looks like you had a really beautiful walk Denise and you captured it so well. I see you have Canadian goose there too; those birds are everywhere, lol. And yes, you don't want to come too close when they have babies 😄😄😄

Fantastic walk! Thanks for sharing. I particularly love the one of the orange lillies, it's really nice.

Great Photography dear you are doing an amazing job.

Wow great stuff dear thanks a lot.

What splendor to see a family of geese just resting alongside of a lake. I don’t know what dimension you took these from but it looks like it was an amazing day! Not sure I would want go back inside during an adventure seeing all that. I would just keep walking looking for more.

I was shaken by my impression that US is all like on Wall Street. Lovely walks, wondering why you feel the need to go on a trip? You are privileged to live in a wonderful place ... that I thought, stupid, that there could only be in Europe. When I was a kid, one of the things I was most afraid of was ... Mother Goose.

Your radiant pink lily adorned with dew was a definite eye catcher @dswigle.......and then you showed us more wonders of nature on your walk. Wonderful photos my friend. My Wednesday walk was a night one too. I set out to do the Beach markets but got sidetracked.......but don’t worry. I managed to kill two birds with one stone. ( Stupod saying.....I agree) So I should have a Market Friday post for this week all going well. 😊

You take us every time to a wonderful trip with you, I love it 😍

so perfect and beauty is what you are @dswigle

Glorious shots to admire today what a great walk you had nice to see and explore this beautiful place :D

That must have been a great spring walk, and you brought us some gorgeous photos. Even a nice "Bugseye" is there - do you remember the TSU group?

Have a nice day to you and your loved ones, dear Denise.

Beautiful shots Denise, I loved coming along on this walk! Resteemed :)

Lovely walk! Thanks for taking us along! I especially enjoy the pic of the mushroom with the house in the background. It was worth the effort of probably getting down so low to take it ;)
