Field Station
I miss it. I hope I can be that happy again. Living in the woods really does something for me.
I think part of my problem this semester is that I'm still trying to adjust to living in a built up area, when all I want to do is return to the woods. We weren't completely isolated, and we had all the modern conveniences as befits a research station, but we had the woods at our front door and the lake at our back. I was just think that one of the things I miss the most is the night. Walking back to the lodges at night was an amazing experience every time. I've never seen stars that bright. And the moon! The first time I walked back during a full moon I thought my watch had stopped and that I had worked through sun rise! Really, I've never seen the moon so bright, full, and big.
Pennsylvania has some amazing woods and I would love the opportunity to return to them.
I can have fun in a built up area if I'm with the right people, but it's like being sick for a really long time; you just don't know what healthy feels like anymore. Last semester I finally felt good, relaxed, happy, healthy.
Love
