Into the woods we go

There’s something special about being in the woods. Not looking at a forest from a distance, not flying over a bunch of trees, or thinking about the woods. You gotta be in it. Immersed in the quiet mystery of nature. That’s where I love to be especially with my dogs. It’s there I can think clearly, breath calmly, pray genuinely, and one of the best parts is watching my dogs be dogs. They like to chase squirrels, rabbits, and moles (after they dig ’em up). Here’s a video I put together today, a short poem featuring a nearby trail through the woods.

Since 2005, I've called Nashville home. I'm the leader of the pack, which includes a 13-year-old beagle and an 11-year-old blue heeler mix. My days include writing, video editing, and other fun activities. Thanks for checking out my blog, I hope you enjoy it!
