Day 14
February 28, 2008
I could have used another layer. It is colder than I thought it would be. I am grateful to follow Snowshoe Man’s path, for I didn’t wear my snowshoes again today… Walking where he walked takes less energy than walking through the deep and drifted snow.
When I arrive at my Sit Spot, I see Bones and his “mother” coming up the path. They don’t usually walk in the woods. Lolli and Bones play. The two mothers talk briefly, then she to pick up kids, and me to 20 minutes silence.
It is a stunningly beautiful day. The breeze works hard to dust the rest of the snow from the higher branches and to move puffy clouds across the sky. The sun makes long, intricate shadows on the snow.
