Into the Woods!


English winters are known for being depressing. I could handle the cold, if only it wasn't so overcast all the time. I woke the other day to rare cornflower blue skies, so hightailed it down to the woods by my house (with my voodoo doll, obviously).


Rufus sneaked into the shot! I'm actually so glad he did, though, because he's weirdly camera shy and I barely have any photos of him. Just a shame I look so miserable!






It makes me sad that so many trees have been torn down here recently, and that the wildflowers have been ripped out. A lot of this whole area has been cleared, and just left as piles of dirt. I always thought that when I have children, I'd bring them here to weave wildly through the trees, as I did.

Every time I walk through these woods, I remember when I randomly came across the entrance to acres of woodland. I love to throw caution to the wind while I'm exploring, so I ended up getting lost for hours. I've never been able to find the woods again, which is bizarre, because I discovered it while walking in a big circle! I think of it as the Magic Woodland.
