I think being able to recognize certain changes in the leaves or the logs on the ground shows how well I&#8217;ve come to know my site and has caused me to become a part of my place, but not as a contributor, more as an observer. From visiting my site, it&#8217;s easy to see how nature can so easily become a part of culture, given that connecting with a specific place on a regular basis could develop into a tradition and then having that place to connect with could become customary. Moving forward I will definitely come back to visit my site and deepen my connection but for now I&#8217;ll say goodbye for the summer!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-atomic-blocks-ab-column ab-block-layout-column\"><div class=\"ab-block-layout-column-inner\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/nlhardy\/files\/2021\/05\/a-tree-canopy-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/nlhardy\/files\/2021\/05\/a-tree-canopy-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/nlhardy\/files\/2021\/05\/a-tree-canopy-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/nlhardy\/files\/2021\/05\/a-tree-canopy-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/nlhardy\/files\/2021\/05\/a-tree-canopy-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/nlhardy\/files\/2021\/05\/a-tree-canopy-1568x2091.jpeg 1568w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/nlhardy\/files\/2021\/05\/a-tree-canopy-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nature and People A lot of human activity was present at my site!
