Walk softly among the giants

Hush, hush

I’ve been disappearing into the woods more often than usual of late.

I’ve always found places like this good for the soul, oases of quiet refuge from a planet that needs to be put on pause every once in a while.

And as the sounds of traffic slowly fade into the background, the sounds of the forest just as gradually take their place, buffered as they are by the soft, muted colors under the thinning canopy. Once again, nature has reaffirmed who’s in charge.

I’m not alone on this particular visit, as autumn’s colors seem to have attracted the crowds. But the walks here are just as cathartic any day of the year.

We’ll keep that our little secret, though.
