In the Spring of 2019, Susan introduces her workmate Joe to the outdoors. She’s a seasoned hiker who loves nature and quotes John Muir. He’s an introvert who hates mud and is terrified of snakes. But Joe catches on and Susan is impressed. Soon, they are hiking every weekend and growing closer. But then Covid-19 comes and threatens to turn their lives upside down. “Burr Oak” is a story of renewed leases on life and how nature can both bring people together and separate them.
