Cosmic Photo Challenge: Take a Hike

Dale offers the prompt “take a hike” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

I begin the hike by crossing Regent Parkway. I go up and down many hills because this part of South Carolina is not the plains, but more like the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, or some other mountains, I don’t know which.

After following the trail (or sidewalk) I reach a park. Soon I reach my neighbor’s flower garden. Then I wander down the neighborhood street until I reach the entrance to the abandoned golf course.

There is a (very) steep incline which I normally wouldn’t take except today I’m giving a tour. Then I follow the cement trail making sure I avoid any snakes needlessly sunning themselves. Then I reach the pond with the ruined structures.

And then I’m back home.

We have crossed Regent Parkway and are on the sidewalk lining that road.
Now we are at the park with Regent Parkway to the right.
A sunflower that is no longer in bloom, but producing seeds in my neighbor’s garden.
The steep incline. The top in the picture is not the top.
If you survived the incline, here is a view of the top.
A view of the pond.
On the way down the hill there are some ruins such as this one.
On the way home there are wild blackberries.
I bring some home for my wife.
