A Week in the Woods and on the Lake
I've just spent a week in a unpopulated part of the Ozarks, tuned in to when fish are biting, moon rise and ballooning spiders traveling by wind on a single thread to their new homes.
It is strange to be here without painting supplies, and luxurious to simple take it all in, no output.
We walked for five hours yesterday in the woods.
There was a leaf hanging by a spider's thread in the woods, dancing in drafts passing through the woods. Here's a long look at it:
Netting shad, a small silvery fish that is great catfish bait.
We caught 5 nice channel cats and had them for breakfast.
First time off of work since spring, I feel renewed.
