Yes, I have been wanting to do this for a few years – walk barefoot in the woods. So today was the day. The trek was only about two and a half minutes in total, but it was super wonderful for both my soul and the soles of my feet.

I apologize that this might be a bit dizzy-ing – I’m not experienced in posting videos.

Ganesh is a majestic three-branched oak tree on the trail whom I hug every time I see him. Drumbo, a hollow naked pine or cedar – I’m not sure which – gets the same treatment. Plus he makes a lovely drumming sound when I forcefully pound on his belly.
