pickWhile not top notch or anything, I found this book relatable and easy to listen to. The MC‘s efforts to reach out and reconnect with old friends also sets her on a path to becoming more connected with her own local community. Fun musings on trees, travel and guidelines for guests. A soft pick for me, but should give my book discussion group something to talk about.
“Gerry had read an article in one of the papers recently about something called”forest bathing,”how it could relax you and remove stress from your life.You could immerse yourself in a forest.The Japanese called shinrin-yoku,and its beneficial effects apparently had something to do with the chemicals trees release into the air.Maybe she would try it.She was all for using her senses to soak up the atmosphere of the woods and leave her cares behind.”
Recent acquisition for our personal library.

I‘m not sure who is doing this buddy read but tag people if you know. The Boston liberty tree was today‘s entry. I‘m just showing some pictures of the area (Liberty Tree District) today. It‘s part of the theater district. They have a monument for the tree. And some art on a building. ❤️Boston

bailedThis one just isn‘t working for me. I‘m not a fan of the writing or the structure, which frequently flips into memoir after a very short snippet of science.
Just signed up for the #FallingForFallSwap, one of my favorites, aside from the Christmas ones. Thanks for hosting, @Avanders @Chrissyreadit 🍂 🍁 ☕️
So excited for this swap… if you haven‘t joined in on the fun, what are you waiting for???

Thanks for #trees #tagyoureit @kspenmoll I love this book. It made me more aware of nature. Of trees and the conditions that have to be right for some of them to live, the interdependent ecosystem of it all. The creatures who live in them, the insects who make their home. Their root system. How they talk to each other. These are pics are from different walks/hikes I took on vacation and just like reading a good Kingsolver or Patchett, being👇🏼
I am going in a hike in a local forest tomorrow morning! Cannot wait to smell the pine…🥾🌳🌲
@Reggie a recent post of yours had trees pictured so #tagyoureit !!!
