Describe your first memorable experience
exploring and spending time in nature. Were you in awe? Or were you not
impressed? Would you rather spend time in the forest or the city?
The first
really memorable experiences in nature that come to mind are my family’s Spring
Break snow skiing trips to Steamboat Springs, CO when I was a young girl. I was definitely in awe of the mountains in
their cold beauty, and especially the “black” ski courses with man-made moguls
and such. It was only a couple of trips
(best I can remember), but they were such good experiences that it feels like
we went every year. J Same
goes for our trip to a Dude Ranch in the west on one of our motor home trips
across the US. I always thought we went
there twice, but my parents said it was only once. The best part of that trip was
horseback riding in the natural world around the ranch. To be honest, my memories of all our family
trips tend to be pictures in my mind of spending time outdoors (on the beach,
on a horse, or on the slopes).
To this day,
I would rather spend time in nature than in the city. I enjoy touring around the major attractions
in big cities for a weekend or a few days, but as far as regular outings, I’d
rather be hiking, at the river, or on the mountain. How about you?
