Woods

Now that I live within a few hundred yards of my own  little forest I have discovered how much fun woods can be to explore and hunt through.

Woods are kind of magical, if you stand deep enough in to the woods you can't see anything but trees, all you hear is the sounds of of nature and the occasional scuffle that scares you out of your wits!
It seems so much drama can be born in woods, books and movies are examples.

I find woods fun to hike through and picture large tree houses or a wooded scene from a book I

have read. Or make up a story of my own and let it wander through the woods. I just watch it. This may seem weird, but again I am a writer =)

Woods are relaxing and peaceful. We have a little stream in our woods, and if you listen you can hear the quiet gurgling of the fresh water going over a tiny version of a waterfall.

I love my woods =)

We live right next to the Jack Gore Baygall unit of the Big Thicket National Preserve. That's cause hubby's family owned the land first. And since we are at the old homestead sight, there it is, right beside us! I feel such a sense of calm come over me when I turn off onto our little road in the evenings coming home from work. Trees overhead. Trees to each side. I hear you, girlfriend.
