body, a, a:hover { cursor:url(http://i56.tinypic.com/2m7awjk.jpg), auto } I spend my days running through the forest. I’m a strange person, with too many interests to handle. I study nature, and climb rocks. I’m an artist. I scavenge roadkill, and dead things. I collect bones, and specimens. I’m a fossil hunter, and a cliff lover. My greatest passion is the wild. I’d go to any lengths to protect it. I want to share my love, and encourage exploration! I live my life the way I choose. Outside the lines society has drawn for us. My heart and home is in the forest. That is the society that I love and respect. *All photos in this blog are my own.Tumblr (3.0; @frolicingintheforest)http://frolicingintheforest.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/3473f904390c1d09c236408b115da352/tumblr_mn6fzym50a1qcy0o0o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://frolicingintheforest.tumblr.com/post/51037047392http://frolicingintheforest.tumblr.com/post/51037047392Tue, 21 May 2013 21:55:10 -0400rhododendronevergreenevergreenshwatsontrees<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/b24129886a33f3a48ddb4b0eeba3114f/tumblr_mn6fen6lUs1qcy0o0o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/e6fa1890a1ff01d32724803d93a6bf61/tumblr_mn6fen6lUs1qcy0o0o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Marcum snapped some surprise pictures of me.
