Yesterday I drove to a nearby town (well an hour or so away) and took advantage of the drive. It makes the drive worthwhile. Additionally, I came back with just enough daylight that I could still see the area, even if shrouded in twilight.
Part of the way goes past (if I choose that way) a wetlands, just as when College Girl goes back to college, her drive takes her past a different wetlands.
In a way, they look like a prairie, full of high grass, but there are little inlets of water that can be seen, if the road is high enough, and sometimes there are reeds to give away the presence of water. On occasion you can see a tree so full of birds, it looks like flowers, but yesterday I saw no wildlife.
It soothes my soul.
One day I'd like to take an air boat ride through the area. I think it would be fascinating, if the weather would cooperate and not be too hot, and if the bugs would be at a minimum.

Picture the grasses
grown high, bending in the wind
reeds and shrubbery too.
