It’s been a long time since I last hiked at Folsom Lake. Today I was curious about the water levels, and encouraged by the cooler weather, I drove out to Sterling Point on the North Fork. I pretty much had the whole place to myself. Halfway through my walk, I sat down on a rock overlooking the water and just listened to the peace and quiet. No airplanes or helicopters, no sirens, and no music but the sound of the wind, the water, and a few birds. I really should do this more often.
