a walk in the woods

I tried to walk at Old Town Hill in Newbury on a day in July when hordes of biting insects drove me away. Today I returned, beginning with a short trail that looped by river and wetlands.

I followed a wide trail up to the top of the hill before turning back. As I was leaving I saw another trail of sorts leading across the wetlands; that will need to be the target of another day's wander.
