There's not a much better feeling than having a relaxing woodland adventure with energetic children after being cooped up a few days with bone-chilling, freezing rain. And, the best part about walks in winter, is that you don't really have to worry about ticks, chiggers, snakes, spiders, and poison ivy.
It's heavenly. And, it's also my entry for favorite pastimes on the homestead, photography contest by @knowledge-seeker. One of my favorite activities is definitely spending time in the rustic woods on the homestead.
