Craft Collecting

It crossed my mind the other day that the sun and warm weather will not

last forever; soon will come a day when the forest floor is blanketed by

snow and the beach will have ferociously freezing winds that chill you to

the bone. When that day comes I no longer will be free to walk the land

and find items for crafting. That day has yet to come though, for now

summer continues. Squirrels can still be seen frantically scurrying from

tree to tree. A family of ducks can be seen casually bobbing along with

the ocean waves. A raccoon hurriedly climbs a tree upon hearing the

forest crunch beneath our footsteps. This land is home to foxes, moose,

and coyotes, but we have yet to venture deep enough into the bush to see

them; our scent bothers them more than other creatures. We are a sight

to see, us two humans and a dog; Kobe runs wildly ahead, Paul keeps

a steady pace in the middle, while I lag behind, stopping to smell the

flowers, stare at a particular tree, or pick up sticks and abandoned shells.

And just when I thought I couldn't get enough of wearing blue and being

by the ocean, the forest is what calls to me as of late. Perhaps it's the nearing

of autumn that causes me to want to wander the woods donning clothes

brown and red in colour or plaid in print.
