Long way for a photo

There's no way I wouldn't show this one. Since I was a hemophiliac most of my life (I'm still genetically one), my ankles are shot, from repeated internal bleeds. Now I can walk, but if I walk a long way (like shopping in a Super Walmart) and over rough terrain, I'm ruined for two days. But I did. I love nature. When I was a teen this hike would have been nothing, but as I write this I'm stiff and hurting. Oh well, it's only pain, no big deal. Anyway this is waaaayyyy down a trail in the Land Between The Lakes on finger jutting out into Barkley Lake. They have at least two wooden bridges across creeks. There may be more, we never made it to the end. Go there or be square, is all I've got to say. It's very nice and naturish. Oh, one deer zoomed across my path about 10 feet from me. I guess she didn't like my smell.

 

Thanks for comments about my health. It's not a big deal. Anyone with a chronic disease, if they have the right attitude, consider it just part of life. What I was trying to urge was for fellow photogs to GO AFTER THE SHOT, even if it hurts.
