I Went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately.

Those Were The Days
Read what an odd dream taught me about aging, time travel, and living life to its fullest.
Solitude Is Not Sickness
Sometimes people are overly social because it helps them evade something negative they experience when they are alone.
Standing In The Rain
Discarding immediate rewards in order to experience some bigger, future gain is still a hard task for many modern humans.
The Haunted Forest
This small footpath leads to my home. We lovingly refer to this area as The Haunted Forest.
The Crossing
Join me on this wonderful journey away from modern life and experience beauty, awe, and adventure that awaits when you are ready to venture…into the woods.
On The Road Again
I had not walked the trails for two weeks, so the first walk was pretty special. We discovered a beautiful turtle beside the creek and a small beaver swimming upstream.
Above The Forest
Join me on this wonderful journey away from modern life and experience beauty, awe, and adventure that awaits when you are ready to venture…into the woods.
Seeing In The Dark: Cabela’s Gen 4 Trail Cameras
If you live in a rural area or suspect you have wildlife in the area, then I recommend you invest in a trail camera.
Brood In The Hood
Spring is in the air, and baby birds and animals are turning up everywhere. Go Spring!
Intoxication
If you close your eyes and breathe in deeply, you would swear that someone was holding a flower right under your nose.
Spring Walks
The weather is warmer, and the days are longer. It’s a great time to get out for evening walks after an early dinner.
New Residents
The property’s newest residents are a pair of Carolina Wrens, which I named Kilo Wren and Wrenfield (to the dismay of our local bats).
The Sky Is Falling
By the time I snapped a photograph, my new friend was already on the move. Can you spot the snake’s tail in the photograph above?
New Discoveries
Join me as I make new discoveries on my journey into the woods. Today, new wildlife and old memories that make a difference.
Saturday Morning
I have a daily ritual I conduct upon waking. Once I am vertical and before anything else, I walk to the bedroom window, slide one of the blind slats up, and peek outside.
Outdoor Theatre
Every now and then, you can see a sunset that looks more spectacular than the others.
