Tree in the ground

It was Thanksgiving day and my Dad and I were out on a walk looking for geocaches. Unfortunately we made a wrong turn up a long hill; at least there was a nice view. When we discovered that we had traveled in the wrong direction we turned around and started to head back. Along the way I entertained myself by taking pictures of a rock wall covered in moss and leaves. Nothing too exciting, but it was interesting enough...As I was turning my little digital camera off I glanced at the view screen (it was pointing at the ground at the time). It caught my eye and made me pause. In the frame was a 'tree' in the asphalt. What a gift it was to see! I clicked a few frames and continued walking. There were several more 'trees' along the way, that I had walked right over the first time and did not even notice. It turns out that we didn't really go the wrong direction, just not the way we had planned....
