Long Branch Farm is a Cincinnati Nature Center property, located in Goshen, Ohio with 632 acres and 5 miles of hiking. I live very near here and trail jog five or six times a week with my dog…Jake. Many days while I’m jogging, I’ll wish I had brought my camera because everything is so beautiful, but when you have a dog like Jake with you…that’s not an option. So I laced up my shoes, while Jake was prancing around thinking he was going, and left without him to take photographs. I usually jog about 4 miles and cross the creek about 3 times. This is an area where you jog along the trail bordering the creek.
There’s a moss covered pond that looks quite pretty in the early morning sunlight…
This area of the path seems as if you’re entering a tunnel of light…
Special flowers and plants are everywhere…
Here’s another view of the creek…
Poor Jake…he missed out! But I was finally able to get some photographs in the morning!

The colors are exploding! The little flower looks sugar coated, nice. This is the first year I have watched the season change from a great distance, having moved south… 🙂

They are! I like how you put that “sugar coated”. I used to live in Texas…loved everything about it except for the heat and the traffic. I was in Dallas for 10 years.
