The magic of nature is obviously a recurring theme in my life. It is what I turn to in times of worry and doubt as well as joy. It is where I seek my calm. And it is where I am most comfortable with my friends.
For 23 years Mr. Kate and I have been camping with our best friend on the May long week-end, starting with the year we got married and we camped in my mum’s front yard. Since then we have added our child, and then her husband and then her child. It is the one long week-end we will brave full campgrounds for – to be together in nature and celebrate our connections.
This long week-end was as spectacular as ever; we walked and talked and sat around the fire eating way too many s’mores. We geocached and explored and played with a five-year-old.
And we came home rejuvenated and reconnected.
