Path To Inner Peace: Photos Of The Day

WALNUT CREEK, CA — Patch reader Robert Brewer of Walnut Creek enjoyed the photo published last week titled Tumbling Water and was inspired to send photos from his own ramblings in Northern California.

The photo above was taken on a Shell Ridge Path. Did you notice the hikers far below, or were you too mesmerized by the green hills oozing calmness into your soul?

Here's another photo from Robert. Can you identify what it is?

It's a closeup photo of the trunk of a Birch tree.

Thank you for sharing these photos, Robert!
