#wacthed A CHINESE GHOST STORY (1987)
A hapless tax collector finds himself in a haunted temple where he encounters zombies, demons, a grumpy Taoist swordsman, and the most beautiful ghost in movie history.
My favorite Hong Kong movie of the 1980s. Pure magic.

Yesterday's trail pics 2 - A typically rocky environment of north NJ, with the morning sun illuminating the last of the fall foliage in the distance under a deep blue sky. For real, the sky looked "saturated" with color yesterday.

Yesterday's trail pics - "Echoes"
The stone ruin on the right echoes the cliff on the left, and the ruins together are mere echoes of past human presence. #hiking

As a non-glamorous person with an Old Navy fashion sense, I don't know much about Glamour magazine. However, I doubt the US edition has ever done anything as cool as Glamour Mexico did in naming hard rock power trio #TheWarning Women of the Year for 2025.

I suspect this pink plant is invasive, given its ubiquity, but it sure is pretty to see it lining hiking trails (for one week out of the year ... the rest of the years its green or a leafless brown and goes unnoticed))

Today's trail pic - Pink, the overlooked fall color
I don't know what this plant is called (nothing I've Googled matches it), but it's only this color for about a week out of the year. #hiking

I had the whole place to myself today!
Image 1 is a waterfall (not much water because we're in a drought)
Image 2 is a wooden footbridge near the bottom of a gorge
Image 3 shows autumn colors on a ridge visible through a gap in the trees

For how many centuries has this little rock been stopping that massive boulder from rolling down the mountain?
I see you, little rock! You are strong.

This trail loop has not one but two secret lakes. By that I mean you can't see them from distance (unless you're in an airplane, of course). They just appear.

This is one of my favorite spots in the entire state (if you once followed me on Twitter, you might have seen a winter pic from the same vantage point). It's remote (for NJ at least) and I always have it to myself.
