Nature!

Hello friend! (I hope we are acquainted enough by now for me to address you as much)

I've spent the last three days in the wilderness (well, camping anyway) and I have been immersed in the nature. I love nature. The trees, the water, the sky, the rocks, the dirt, the leaves, the smells, the wildlife, all of it! It all speaks and sings and flows together.

On the ride home I witnessed the destruction of it as I passed roadwork. They tore down so many trees for several miles of road just to make it wider. Traffic isn't even a problem on those roads; we don't need more lanes. This unnecessary holocaust of forest made me so sad. The scars left in the soil by the bulldozer mirrored the scars made in my soul.

So I feel like this blog is sort of a "Guess Who?" game too. Hint number 4? I'm a hippie.

Much love to you all and enjoy your spring! (Or fall if you're in the southern hemisphere!)
