I have only been away from the woods for two weeks, but I am already finding myself longing for nature.
It's rather odd because until I took this job, I had never really spent an extensive amount of time in nature (other than my forced fishing trips as a child).
I like it though. This job is changing me for the better. And hopefully I am developing a lifelong love of the outdoors. (and probably a lifelong hatred of cold weather).
I'm actually looking forward to hiking when I get back (although, I work in the kitchen next week, so I really won't get to hike much).
I wish there were books to learn about nature that weren't so boring and textbook like, because I would like to learn more, but everything I have found so far has been difficult to read. Maybe I should look into children's books....
