I’m with you. I NEED to be outdoors each day. I love seeing the wildlife and my regular friends, some with dogs, walking, jogging, skating, and biking. I go crazy when I have to use the treadmill for inclement weather.
No matter how bad my mood is, an hour or two in the woods with the animals is guaranteed to restore my optimism. More often than not, the forest is empty of humans, and if anyone is there, it is always one of the same 4 people besides myself who hike there.
