Good advice seen a couple of days ago at Six Mile Cypress Slough, one of our favorite places to walk here in Fort Myers:
Wherever there is a good spot to get off the walkway at Six Mile Cypress, there are posted words with even more food for thought.
Someone has done a wonderful job of choosing quotes for the signs. And I'm sharing this one with other lovers of this form of the printed word at over at Lesley's SIGNS SIGNS (thank you!)
This is a nice idea. (I hope no-one takes it too literally and falls over the railing, though)
And you are so welcome!

You want to walk in the woods on a cold winter day and you will really hear the tree making strange sounds. At least that was my experience.

O I love this idea of thoughts along the walkway! Beautiful!

Well kept bush walk paths, a credit to the area's rangers and park people.
Have to laugh at "our favorite places to walk here in Fort Myers" - our biggest department store here is called Myers, and come sales time, it is a fort of mad buying customers!

that's a brilliant idea to put words of wisdom at intervals on walking paths.

This looks similar to Bluebonnet Swamp that I've been visiting the last several days. Appears to be just as peaceful, too! So beautiful. :)

That is a simply wonderful quote, Sallie, and I am just the one who will put my ear to a branch and listen.

Very nice indeed, a quite walk and these reminders of life once in a while would be greatly appreciated.

the quotes are a great idea...they make people more aware of their surroundings.

In these years of retirement I've learned to listen and appreciate nature a lot more than I used to. :)
