Pine Cone Lane is the best of both worlds- it is both forest and open field. We love the forest, especially in summer when a trip to town and its concrete parking lots can run the temperatures up to 100 degrees. But turn down our lane and you can watch the temperature in the car drop 10 degrees before you reach the house. The leaves of the trees ripple gently in the breeze, shards of sunlight barely penetrate the protective canopy, and splotches of shade create a soothing, cool oasis.
So although I had never heard of
forest bathing, I totally get the concept.
