			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last weekend Craig and I picked up sandwiches and headed up to Topsmead State Park for a walk and to enjoy the sunset. The last time we were up there, I drove my car through a good foot+ of mud and there was snow/ice mounds.</p>
<p>Now the grass a luscious green, the plantings haven&#8217;t come in yet, but the trees were in full green leaves. We explored a section of the park we hadn&#8217;t been to. I can&#8217;t wait to go back with my bike, and ride this never ending road.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/78799744@N00/3505597421" title="View '_MG_1232' on Flickr.com"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3558/3505597421_9dc74855cd.jpg" alt="_MG_1232" border="0" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p>There is a beautiful stone wall that runs the length of this road on either side. I loved the old trees.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/78799744@N00/3505598197" title="View '_MG_1254' on Flickr.com"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3645/3505598197_e49bedeac4.jpg" alt="_MG_1254" border="0" width="333" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>We headed back to the main house to enjoy the sunset from the back porch. There were people playing frisbee and families enjoying the grounds. As the sun started to set, I realized there was this beautiful glow off the windows.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/78799744@N00/3506410018" title="View '' on Flickr.com"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3627/3506410018_c47c2897d7.jpg" alt="" border="0" width="333" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;m finding it very hard to capture a sunset straight on, I need to read up and experiment more. Before we left I walked up to the big apple tree and noticed the silhouette it&#8217;s branches made. I like how the branches resemble a printed pattern.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/78799744@N00/3506410604" title="View '' on Flickr.com"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3362/3506410604_6b04fc9225.jpg" alt="" border="0" width="333" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>We walked back to the car in the dusk light, and I snapped this one last shot from the parking lot.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/78799744@N00/3505601111" title="View '' on Flickr.com"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3335/3505601111_084bd28281.jpg" alt="" border="0" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p>If you live in the area, I can not recommend enough visiting this park.</p>
