I have a friend who is an avid hiker. Admittedly, I am envious when I see his posts about his latest sojourn on this trail or that. He’s in his 70s and has been discovering the delights of forest adventures for decades. He’s part of a local hiking group, and with backpacks secured and walking sticks at their sides, they routinely set out. Whenever a group photo is posted, their faces tell the story: smiling, joyous, often tired, but always serene.
The forests have once again bestowed their enchanted magic.
