Laura and I went bike riding last Tuesday around the lake at Notre Dame and then proceeded around campus. It was very pretty. Today we took another bike ride although this time we went around Saint Mary's campus. I knew that there was a nature trail located somewhere on the outskirts of the campus. So we were in search of that. We found the entrance and then proceeded our way on the nature trail...
We found the trail to be quiet and relaxing.
Here Laura is posing by the lovely St. Joseph River!
This was the sign that told us that we were on the nature trail.
We looked in the box for the trail maps and all we found were bugs!
Then our trail became narrow, so we decided what the
heck let's just ride and see where it takes us!
It took us to an open field with this weird mushroom rock collection.
It also had a place with a fenced in area with a fire hydrant on the inside. We have no idea why they would gate a fire hydrant!
So we took off on the narrow nature trail again to figure out where in the heck it actually went. As we made our twists and turns, I made a lovely high pitched scream because there was some unknown bug on me. Laura ran into a few trees. I got a stick caught on my leg that then proceeded to stop my pedal. We had to walk our bikes down the trail otherwise you would hear about us getting pulled out of the river later this evening. Then we came to this:
This is when we decided that maybe this wasn't a bicycle trail because of the steps going up!
This part of the trail actually got us back on the main trail part and we rode out of the woods and around campus. We decided that we would not bike again on the lovely Saint Mary's nature trail!
