Accidental Ramble

by Lydia August 4, 2023

Today, we had one of those lazy family walks which turned into a two-hour ramble. Auri kept saying, “I’m having too much fun!” and Elfi kept laughing and chattering away. The promised showers hadn’t really come to anything, and it was still, warm and calm. We are in peak mushroom season right now, with several varieties popping up in different parts of the woods. Auri knows not to touch any, as I’m not confident enough in my identification, but keeps reminding me that our friend Daša knows which ones we can collect and eat so she’ll be doing that with her one of these days.

A young pre-school girl stands grinning next to her black dog in a wood, her hand on the dog's head. She is wearing green dungarees and a striped woolly hat. The dog has needles from the trees on her nose, and her ridiculously long tongue is hanging out of her mouth.

Semi-Feral Sisters

From earlier this year: Auri and Scapa on a walk through the woods. “Needles on noses, but no woollen mittens…”

Take one Southern and one Northern. Throw in two determined (very) young women and their four-legged guardian and partner in crime. Immerse in the Highlands.
