Fort Sheridan Forest in Chicago's North Suburbs 🦌✨ Who knew you didn’t need to go all the way to Northern Michigan for stunning fall colors right here in Illinois? 😍🍁 Playing hooky on a Monday to explore this serene trail was absolutely worth it—I even had a magical encounter with two beautiful deer! 🥹🦌 Seriously, how enchanting are deer? They’re like nature’s most elegant fairies, quietly roaming through the golden woods! 🧚♀️💫 And can we talk about the vibes? 🎶 The perfect soundtrack for this place is the second movement of Ravel’s Piano Concerto—so soothing, dreamy, and perfectly in sync with the rustling leaves and gentle breeze. It felt like a healing session for the soul! ❤️🩹✨ Have you ever visited a place that instantly calms your mind?
