I truly enjoy reading your writings. I'm a nature writer myself and too often my mind is tied up in the details for something I want to write, rather than down to earth with the critters and blooms. Thanks for allowing me to share your neck of the woods. It reminds me how important it is to live rural. We've been considering a move closer to town due to health problems, but ya know, I think we'd just be swapping health issues, so today's article made me realize that we need to stay rural when we make our move next year. THANKS!
