Forest

Remember my bikeride a few weeks ago? Well, we stopped by a forest too and I took some pics there but didn't use them because my post was already chock full of photos, but here they are! Forests always have such lovely, soft lighting, and I think those specks of sunlight drizzling through the foliage look gorgeous.

Looking at these pictures I can almost smell the wood. Forests always have this slightly damp, warm scent that I love, kind of like the entire world right after it has stopped raining. I can't wait to go for a walk in the forests on a rainy fall day, I always love the wet humus beneath my feet, treading carefully to avoid the plentiful mushrooms and the drops of rain caught in spiderwebs. I'll wear layers of sweaters and cardigans, socks in a sturdy pair of boots and a parka! But for now, I'm glad I can still frollick in the forest wearing nothing but a dress and sandals.

As you can see, we discovered a camp made by neighborhood children! I remember making camps like these when I was a girl scout, or simply in my free time. I LOVED making camps and going on small adventures in the fields and forest around my house. When you are still a kid, even the smallest, lamest huddle of trees can feel like an amazing source of woodland adventures.
