The Fairy Trail

 Do you love the woods?  Do you love whimsical places?  If you do, you will love the Fairy Trail at Infirmary Mound County Park.  (warning:  photo heavy post ahead)

Deep in the dark green woods live the fairies.


We know they live there because we found the trail to their town.






Many of the fairies in fairy town are hard working fairies who live quiet lives in simple houses.








Sometimes, even fairies take holidays.




Perhaps the king of the fairies will invite you to visit him at his castle.


But beware of the troll who lives on the hill at 4309!


Most fairies are friendly, but once in awhile you might encounter a curmudgeon.



Do you really believe that the fairies live in the deep woods?  Maybe some day, you will meet one like I did...


if you place a coin or shell or shiny stone in the wishing well.

It must be fun walking through the deep dark woods and finding such charming (or curmodgeony) signs of the wee fairies and other creatures who reside there!
