The arrival of fall is approaching and my excitement is shouting . The feeling of goosebumps start to go up and down my arms when I walk outside enough to give me chills, the breeze moves my hair in a gentle way. The smell of the air starts to consist of pumpkin spice and cinnamon making me lick my lips. The trees start to stand out with vibrant colors, and the leaves fall like rain falls in the spring. All the time and effort put into every leaf to be racked just to be destroyed by a one jump…

We were driving on bumpy, muddy trails to check the trail cameras, which were hanging on the trees with a strap and a bright…

with free reign of a playground. Sometimes that is just the extent of what happens and it is, in a way, bitter-sweet. At the age of my parents and my other close relatives, this is also the preferred option. Sitting by the campfire and roasting marshmallows over a conversation between relatives that you may not have known existed is a pastime that is more than welcome after a year of no contact. This time, while it may seem like a downgrade, is just the…
