Wednesday Walk Along Two Trails!

My walk today is along the Jerusalem Mill trail and the Jericho Covered Bridge trail. They are both in the Kingsville, Maryland area and are part of the Gunpowder Falls State Park. Jerusalem Mill is a living history museum site. They weren't open on the day we went but the trails are open every day.

Jerusalem Mill and Blacksmith Shop

In an effort to cut back on some of my photos, I'll be putting a few in collages. In this first collage, there is an old mill stone and a sign noting that Jerusalem Mill is also the Headquarters of Gunpowder Falls State Park.

A scenic area by the Mill! They have picnic tables and also host events here sometimes.

It was a great day to go fishing and this seemed like a popular spot.

The trail has a few little bridges so people can get over some watery areas.

I loved hearing the water from most of the trails.

This was a little rail that was on a very short part of the trail. I wish I had looked around more to see if there was a reason for it but I was kinda busy trying not to trip over all the tree roots. 😀

Question! Does it make anybody else extremely nervous when having to walk under trees like these?

Here is the Jericho Covered Bridge from two angles.

More water views...

I came across a few mushrooms and flowers.

This was a view from a hill.

A lot of trees had these tree guards around the trunks. I wondered if they were there to deter wildlife from damaging them.

This photo shows another view of the Mill from the water.

Last water photo!

Back to where we started!

My very last photo is to show off the pretty flower bush.
