Smells: the burning back of a field or underbrush; the sick sweet rot of vegetation; fish fry; oil and diesel and gas; overly hot asphalt; fireworks; charcoal; manure on the breeze; Sights: twisting oaks; Spanish moss; dappled sunlight of a tree canopy; back end of a old f-150 blue truck with a hint of rust; frayed old blue jeans with grease stains; crumbling antebellum mansion over taken by ivy and slowly being swallowed by the oaks that once framed it;  blooming of various wildflowers; fireflies Sounds: Cicada’s in the distance; the cooing of a dove piercing; The grumble of a diesel engine down a gravel road, crunching the gravel together; the baying of a beagle through the woods; crack of a long barreled gun, Tastes: butter; the taste of fried things; the taste of swamp air on the tongue, molasses, salty marsh air; tartness of fruit or berries in a cobbler; watermelon; bbq; that one gnat that you always accidentally eat; Sensations: the squelch of prying your foot back out of the mud; the wall of humidity in the air when you walk outside; the burn on skin after too long in the river/creek/lake; driving into a dense fog; the combination of satisfaction and not after smacking the shit out of a mosquito, but seeing your own blood smeared alongside its remains. Clothing: snake boots; old jeans; faded tshirt; old hat with a logo (tractor supply, etc);
