I absolutely love the woods. Just the smell, the little plants people usually don't take the time to look at, walks for enjoyment. The house my now X and I built, which we've been out of for 15 years and sold when we split up, was located in what they call a climactic forest which means the trees had never been cut. We had some oak trees that were enormous around and tall, tall, tall. We built a screened porch on the back and I just savored the time I could sit out there at night, smell the night air, hear the birds going to bed, and watch the bats come out swooping around. I loved it. Sitting on a log, reading a good book is heaven ..... of course I'd also need a glass of sweet tea.
