In the Forest

On the 7th of May, I visited mystic vale for the first time. My impressions of the forest were positive. As soon as I began walking in the trail, I noticed a change in temperature. It was cool because of the big, tall maple trees that shaded the ground. Small birds chirped softly from their perches in the trees and bugs buzzed all around of me. I don't go into the forest often, so the smells were alien to me. I smelled fresh air, which I liked very much, and damp earth, which I didn't like at all. I will go back when the weather changes and there are not so many bugs!
