A slow week in the valley
Seven days, one cabin by the river, and no plan at all.
We rented a cabin by the river for a week and made one rule: no plans before breakfast.
The days
Most mornings, we walked up the river until we were hungry. Most afternoons, we read on the rocks and swam when it got too hot.
The nights
No signal, no screens, and more stars than I have seen in years. On the fourth night, we saw a fox at the door.
Going home
The drive out of the valley took two hours. It felt like we had been away for a month.
