We didn’t see any woodpeckers on the woodpecker trail, but it was a gorgeous day nevertheless. Kevin and I went on a little hike this afternoon to enjoy the great outdoors. It’s unusually perfect weather outside right now and I’m just soaking it right up.
The leaves fluttered around us and we occasionally came across other hikers. Mostly though, it was just us and nature, the crunching of the leaves making a backdrop to our voices.
And the colors? May I mention how beautiful the greens, oranges, and reds were? The leaves practically glowed with pride, as if they were shouting, “Look at us! Look at how beautiful we become as we start dying.”
So I looked at them and I thought, Wow. Because what more can you think when you come across nature in such raw formats, the vibrancy of autumn glistening in its organic glory?
So we hiked and we soaked. I feel fully refreshed and wholly filled with happiness. This is when I come alive. Fall births something deep in my gut that just dances with joy at the mixture of the sounds, the colors, the smells…
It’s just refreshing.
