Folsom Lake at Rattlesnake Bar

The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge for the week of May 9, 2018.

Where do you belong? In the hustle and bustle of a big city or amongst friendly faces in a small town? For this week’s challenge, show us your place in the world.

I don’t live in a big city, although sometimes traffic jams and noisy neighbors can almost make it feel like one. When I feel myself getting too stressed, the best thing I can do is find a trail and take a good, long hike. Lake Natoma is within walking distance, and Folsom Lake just a short drive away. Out here, I can catch my breath and regain my perspective. This my place in the world.
