Powerline Run

In a total shift from our runs earlier this week, this morning's run featured mist and temps in the high 50s. A bit of an overcast day, but nice to be out. I hit the powerlines for a 5 mile run, and enjoyed the peace and quiet, broken only by the birds singing away. Things have come into full bloom in the last week or so - bunchberries, wild strawberries, white violets, rhodora, even a beautiful iris along a swampy part of the trail, and many flowering shrubs I'm at a loss to name. Also saw my first red eft of the season, always a favorite of mine to come across on the trail, whether running or hiking!
