Hubby and I were lucky enough to have good weather this weekend. We got out of the house and took a nice long walk in a park here in Indianapolis.
It was cloudy but warm enough to walk comfortably in a jacket. We seen a lot of little sprouts of life, letting us know Spring is trying to take hold.
We have had a ton of rain here lately so parts of the trail were pretty muddy. We suspect that is why the park had nearly no one else in it. Hubby and I enjoyed it though and we were able to take an extra peaceful walk.
It was relaxing listening to the water on the path along the stream. Although, it was sad because we passed a few large trees that had fallen over the winter months.
We found what we suspect are Indian trail tree's while on our walk. I would have loved to walk in those directions for a minute to see if it lead to anything but the signs reminded me that we have to stay on the trails.
To be honest, I am sure too much has changed since the days that they needed those trees for directions. I doubt there is anything left to be found or seen.
We seen a little bit of wild life in the park and stopped to enjoy the pond on our way to the parking lot. All in all, it was just a beautiful way to spend the day.
A big thank you to @ace108 for hosting the #beautifulsunday and to @c0ff33a for hosting the #sublimesunday tags each week!

Happy Easter Sunday @debralee. You got beautiful photos for us all to enjoy again. 😄 Specially like the second photo with the moss. But got me curious as well as to where those trees could have lead you.

Thanks! I love all of the moss everywhere right now. Although, I can't wait to see leaves and flowers.

I tried this reply a few times....hope this one sticks. I hate it when steemit goes crazy.
Anyhoo....I enjoyed your walk photos....I like this time of year even though there isn't much on the trees....I like the little bits of orange gold leaves that catch the sun.
I didn't know about those bent trees. Interesting :)

I was just happy that it was warm enough to be outside. :D
Tree's like that are believed to be old Indian trail markers that pointed people into the direction of water/food or other places of importance. I suppose they were their version of GPS.

Commune with nature is a lovely thing to do. Nice to see that indian tree again which according to your post in the past tells about direction but it saddened me that few were fallen because of weather condition. Hope there will new ones that will spring out in the same area as a substitute for them.

This is what I am looking forward to in your posts. Every time you do it's a different world. Is there a possibility of getting lost if you follow the Indian trail?

Thanks! We were just in a park with woods this time around. It's probably not big enough to get lost in but it is surrounded by residential area and a bit of farm land.
I would get lost for sure if I got off the trail in one of our larger State Parks. Heck, I get lost in the game Minecraft. lol My guess is, that if there was anything left to see, the parks would be trying to profit from them as an attraction.

It would be awesome if that will lead to somewhere interesting though. Maybe these kinds of parks should incorporate stuff like that. It would make the park more engaging.

I love disiduess tree's and the twisting and turning of branches and trunks. I see the river or creek is dirty from the rain. Ours at home is the same from all the rain we have had.

What a lovely walk in the woods for #SublimeSunday, it might not be sunny but at least it is dry. We have had rain, grey skies and even snow again today! Those wonky trees are amazing - so they were used as some sort of Indian trail marker? Fascinating. The little squirrel is so fun just perched merrily up in the tree. Thanks for joining in and sharing your #SublimeSunday

Thank you! We've had a lot of rain here but the trails were not in too bad of shape from it.
Yeah, the Indiana Trail Marker trees were used so the Indiana's knew which way to go to find important things. I really wish we had some trails that were well preserved.
