Wanderlust

I'm getting some serious itches for outdoor activities.

I want to be rained on and have the wind blow me dry.
I want to smell and taste the dirt on my hands.
I want to lay down on the lumpy ground and sleep like I've never slept before,
rinse my face in the freezing cold of a mt. stream,
wear the same clothes for three days straight,
feel like I'm alive again,
alive in the snow and ice.
