i played in the rain today, puddle jumping and splashing my way to a great soaking with a quality friend. spent some time staring at the colors of southern minnesota in the alternating weather - the thick greens and blues, heavy with the saturation of falling water.
there’s a smell to every area that i’ve been to - a sense. it’s more than a smell though - it’s a synthesis of a great number of sensations, a collection of assorted bits that leads to the ‘smell’ of a place. i can’t place it with a name or begin to give it words but my body knows inherently where i am (be it southern mn, the south pole, duluth, etc…) when i breath deep.
and i’m off to the woods now for a summer of moments and the deep breath of a place.
i’ll be a happy nate.
