Photosynthesis

After what seemed like a lifetime of overcast skies and general dreariness, THE SUN FINALLY CAME OUT IN DRESDEN!!! Because my cells are mainly composed of cellulose, I decided to photosynthesize a bit and go on a hike. Let me tell you, I was a new person! So I hiked up some valley and saw a field in the distance. Beyond the field was a windmill (one of those big industrial sorts). I decided that it would be a good idea to walk across the field so I could get a better view of the windmill and have a good photo opportunity. I got halfway across the field when I saw a large red tractor high tailing it in my direction. It hadn't dawned on me that this could be private property and I was, in fact, trespassing. I decided to bolt for it and started running back towards the forest, only to notice that the tractor was gaining on me. In the end, it was my choice in wardrobe that saved me. You see, I had made it into a little patch of trees and the old man driving the tractor must have been a little hard of seeing, because he could not distinguish me (wearing dark brown pants and a dark green fleece) from the other spruce trees I was standing with. He gave up the search because the next step in the hunt was for him to get off his tractor, and I don't think he was up for that. So, I made it out of there...safe and sound! I then hiked about for another hour and went home when the sun started to set at 3:25.

Here are some pictures from the event...farmer excluded.
