Day 1- The Beginning of the Journey

To the Woods

To the woods I go, 

The journey begins today.

Though the destination is known, 

The path I cannot see.

I do not go alone,

But it feels as if it is 

Just the woods and me.

Journal Entry 1

Today, we spent some time getting to know each other better and to get a better feel for the course. We went over the syllabus and the scheduled activities (I'm so excited to canoe and kayak!). A guest speaker came in to better acquaint us with nature writing, the genre we will be doing for most of this course. I'm very excited to get out and write. Maybe this'll be the inspiration I need to write that novel...
