Because work had gotten more demanding for James, he was not able to go on his usual holidays that he had planned the years prior. He had been around most of the world, but still had some places left to visit. He was so close to seeing them, but now who knows when it would happen.
All he could think about was when he was going to get a chance to travel. But it seemed like it was a distant dream, so he was going to have to come up with something else. He lived in a town that was surrounded by mountains and forests, maybe this wasn’t a bad time to explore that.
