Marvelous, beautiful trees!
“The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.” ~ John Muir

I love nature with a passion. And I think trees are among the best things nature has to offer us. So to clear my mind, calm my insides and once again be in tune with the rhythm of life, (as it should be) I’ll walk among the trees.
The feeling is freeing, I don’t feel alone but a comfortable, solitary oneness that is acceptable when trees are keeping you company. You might say I’m a tree hugger because I do worry about how many trees are cut down in the name of “progress”. But first and foremost I’m a tree lover and the best way to appreciate trees is to get out there among them.
Go for a walk in the countryside, when you can. You’ll thank me for it, or if not me then the trees you’ll meet while there.
Have an excellent weekend my friends, and remember … take care of you!
with affection,
~ Penny
The Why About This 
I am right there with you Penny, which is why hiking in the mountains is one of my favorite things to do! 🙂
Wouldn’t it be an excellent thing to share a few walks/hikes together. I think so, LuAnn. 🙂
I would love that. We are planning a trip up north this summer. Perhaps this will be our time to finally meet. 🙂
That would be just excellent, truly. Fingers crossed, LuAnn. 🙂
I will update you as our plans start to gel. 🙂
Okay! 🙂
Gotta’ love nature…
Ok – I have my exceptions – like the middle of WINTER!!! LOL
Just look at me. I’ve turned into a ^(*&(&#$%$# snow-girl for crying out loud!
xo 🙂 🙂 xo
You have gotten your share, for sure, RoSy. Just a few more months to go. Hang in there and be safe when on the road. 🙂 xo
Walking among the trees, listening to the wind through their branches, watching the shadows they cast is, indeed, a gift.
Yes, all those things Lulu. I sighed, just now, thinking about those things tou mentioned. So true.
Great post … from one tree lover to another!
Thank you, yes they are wonderful! ☺
Excellent suggestion. Sometimes we get so busy that we forget to get out there in nature.
Hi David, so true. Life comes so fast and furious doesn’t it? Thanks for stopping by. ☺
Indeed walking is good in itself but in nature in a forest or a park is so wonderful and liberating. I love the woods and I hug trees too 🙂 … and you Penny! ♥
