Blending with nature is about the most peaceful place anyone could ever find.
Having grown up in the place you describe HPGirl and spending time on rivers such as this, I can not imagine anything more spiritual and uplifting.
That’s a very nice place to imagine being. When I was younger I always imagined being in the middle of a dark forest, with a spot of sunlight coming thru, all by myself. It was what I imagined the place the elves in Lord of the Rings looked like, mixed with the woodland marshy area along the river where my mom’s farm was. I used to go climb the trees with a book and sit there for hours reading and watching the animals meander around below me.
Wow…these images you both share make me want to go back to the woods around Tallulah and find the hidden cove above the waters, a place I would go to alone where fallen logs formed a soft seat, moss covering and fallen pine needles lending a subtle fragrance. It was a quiet place except for the water far down below. And the sound only heightened the peace. I remember sitting there in such yummy stillness. The sun barely made it through the canopy of trees. I could look down on the water and see the sun dance off the cool wet spilling over smooth beautiful stones.
I visited this scene shown here in April…absolutely must go back again before the summer’s end.
Thank you for sharing this wealth…
