Radnor Lake

I have now found my favorite spot in Nashville.... that's not shopping :) I LOVE this park! I've been twice. So, I decided to go today after work! I got off at 4:00 and ended up getting there at 4:30. The sun was starting to set, but I figured/hoped it wouldn't get too dark in the woods. We set our clocks back on Sunday and I didn't really know when it started to get dark. So I'm running on the running path and then I turn off into the woods, where you get fined if you run! So I'm walking and it starts getting dark, fast!! So I start walking really really fast. I just wasn't really thinking. I love exploring on my own and I did it ALL the time in Dublin. I would explore places on my own that a female probably should not explore! But I like to be adventurous.

Anyway, I was pretty cool with the fact that I was darking in a deer infested forest at dusk. But I've never really heard of a deer attack! It was awesome seeing so many deer come out at night and so close. On my walk I started thinking about how I would get so angry at girls for being so stupid running at night, of course they would be putting themselves in dangerous situations! ha! As soon as I thought this an old man started walking towards me on the trail. I wasn't "really" scared, but my heart did beat faster and I started walking faster. When I passed him I kept turning my head to see if he was following me!! I was so paranoid!! ha!! It was a pretty cool experience. I like how it was me, God, and the deer in the woods.... ok and the random old man... but it was still pretty cool.
