Vivid description of your environment, feels like we're walking along with you! That crow... Your tale reminds me of a recent hike with A.J., through a corner of eastern Tennessee's Great Smoky Mountains National Park, on a rugged trail that looped 5 miles deep into the mountainous valley of Cade's Cove. We eventually reached a picturesque waterfall, tumbling majestically into the river at our feet. Almost as notably and just as memorable, along our travels that day and with great hopes of seeing a black bear (which we eventually did -yay!) we encountered so many crows it became comical. "Oh, look, another crow!" -haha. So the mention of your crow made me chuckle and also reminded me of one of my first and favorite college friends who would "caw caw!!" back at them on our walks to class. It's funny how memories are triggered -thanks for the smile.
I’m glad you got a smile out of it! Thanks for sharing your own story, too. Sounds like a beautiful hike, and I’m glad you got to see a black bear! Caw caw!

Nice writing, Casey. Talk about narrative transportation!

Thank you Nami!! That was what I wanted to practice with this post 😁
Hi Casey.
My first impression was of scary, spooky woods in a horror story. So your experience with a graveyard and witch’s cottage was very apt.
But I’m glad this story had a happy ending.
❤️Love you💜

And just in time for Halloween, too!
When flying, it is always important to land before releasing globs.
