The above photos were taken along the Battle Road Trail in Concord, Massachusetts. See Minute Man National Park. The walking trail, a little over 5 miles begins at the Visitor's Center and ends at Miriam's Corner, see my first photo, and the one below. I walked about two miles, and these photos are what we saw.
