i'm (beth) caught now in this strange place between wilderness & wilderness ... but at least i'm getting to see my mitchell! i just left the adirondacks saturday morning & already am sad beyond what i though possible to be away from the beauty of the woods (i was actually already sad when i saw the "now leaving the adirondacks" sign - it doesn't take much - but it was the layover at jfk that really pounded it home.). the only remnant left is the dirt still stuck in the prints of my feet! in fact, i just got back from a walk & desperately missed rooty, rocky uphill trail - pavement just doesn't offer the same sense of accomplishment.
tomorrow i'll be off to spend 4 crazy weeks full of traveling, girlish fun :) & of course, more dirt ... & woods - where my soul, i SWEAR to you, is simply happier.
a toast: to the woods; to giddiness; to unbelievable beauty; and to the man who understands my need for all these things
some pictures:
rappelling off noonmark mountain in the high peaks
a kick-ass yellow birch tree that sprouted on a rock along the trail on goodnow mountain.
the beautiful, BEAUTIFUL, beautiful marion river from a canoe.
giddiness galore - blue crocs & all. my friend jess & i on the last day of raquette lake.
