This pine grove is one of my favorite places to take daily walks.

Join me as I make new discoveries on my journey into the woods. Today, new wildlife and old memories that make a difference.

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.

Right now, the deer are feeding out in the cold. A part of me envies their simple, rugged lifestyle.

One thing that strikes me about the flora and fauna I see is their extraordinary self-reliance.

Thoreau's Walden is an escape from busyness, noise, and ignorance. It is a return to what is natural and authentic.

Consider this an open invitation to hang out in a virtual place focused on simple living and nature's rugged wisdom.

Today, I set up trail cameras on my property, and I'm excited to see what they capture.

Last week, I visited the Neuse River Greenway Trail in Raleigh, North Carolina. The day was cloudy and cold.

Gauging how often our expectations are either met or fall short provides a direct look into where we fall prey to false beliefs.

Every now and then, you can see a sunset that looks more spectacular than the others.
