[ 6 picks ] what is... things you find in a forest

i'm definitely not an outdoorsy type. it's partially the non-athlete within. but i also loathe bugs - and being outdoors during spring and summer usually means being surrounded by hundreds of different species of bugs. gross.

despite a general dislike for outdoorsy things, i do love camping and fishing. which doesn't quite make sense. but i'll only go camping in october (oh, ksa, how you taught me well). the bugs start disappearing in the fall and, if we happen to be camping in assateague, the ocean's still warm from the summer sun. perfectionnn!

i hadn't done a 6 picks in awhile so i figured i should step up my game a bit. these picks are all foresty in one way or anotherrrr. and delightfully so. enjoy!
