How will you be enjoying some sweet moments in nature as the summer winds down?
As summer winds down, I am exploring new hikes in the Pacific Northwest to witness all of the changes that the seasons bring. I am excited for all elements of Fall – the colors of the leaves, the bird songs, and the breezy weather.
How did you recharge on your escape to nature?
During my Getaway stay, we spent ample time lounging next to the large window looking out into the tall trees. We spent time away from our screens to walk among the trees, play card games, and have great conversations.
