We've arrived at the end of the 12 lessons I learned from the forest series. It's been pretty fun reflecting on all of these special moments I shared with my family on our forest path. It's really interesting how so many little things can have such an impact on our...

Animal Tracks

Animal Tracks

As early as I can remember I've taken notice to tracks left behind by the forest animals. Most noticeable when left in fresh snow and alongside the forest trail in the mud. Dad was the best at figuring them out and we had a book on all the tracks from animals in...
