Last year I made my first trip to Elkin, North Carolina to explore the area. I ventured into the downtown area and noticed this bridge that was built in 1899 was listed a photo opportunity on their map.

With this still being an active rail line, I carefully framed this shot and gave it a vintage look in post processing.

Many can identify with life being challenging. Which brings to mind the 1.5 mile hike to Crabtree Falls in NC. Listed as easy/moderate. Rain the day earlier made the rocks slick & mud on trail difficult. The Fall foliage cradling the cascading waters was pure Zen. To all currently on life's difficult trail, may you find inner peace.
