The Winter Climb
We drove up the snowy, winding road towards the cozy A-frame cabin we'd rented for the weekend. As we climbed the hill, Renee tried to keep our wheels set in the powdery grooves left by some other vehicle before us but it felt like the road was driving us rather than the other way around. We slowed as she navigated a particularly tight curve and I felt my stomach sink at the distinct sensation of tires spinning without purchase. The tell-tale whir of a revving engine filled my ears as our progress suddenly ceased. Renee eased off the gas and we slid gently down the road a few inches as the packed ice beneath the powder carried us to a gentle stop.

The Hedge Witch
I met a real-life hedge witch when I was a little girl traveling with my mom from Missouri to Arizona. We stopped at a commune, called ARF somewhere up in New Mexico. She was named ARF because there were so many dogs on the commune. We arrived very late and it was so dark we could bearly see the narrow path with our flashlights. The darkness was so dark it felt suffocating. We made our way through the dense pine trees, finally finding the main house, which is basically a community house where all visitors and people who live on the commune can come temporarily sleep, hang out, eat, and possibly have electricity and running water.
