The Great Outdoors

Do you love the outdoors? Do you walk or jog outside regardless of the weather? Do you head to the lake anytime of the year to enjoy what the seasons have to offer?

When I worked two summers at a Bible camp I had the opportunity to teach intermediate canoeing. I loved getting out on the water and hearing the waves lap against the side of the canoe. I also enjoy the paddle slicing its way through the water as you move across the placid lake.

Yesterday we looked at escaping to the great outdoors and doing some fishing. Lake fishing, ice fishing or deep sea fishing, pick your pleasure and enjoy. Today I encourage you to stay outside but find something else to do. Do you like hiking along the many trails your area has to offer? Maybe you like biking those trails instead.

It doesn't matter what time of year it is if your hobby is enjoying the outdoors you will find something to do whether it is 40 below or 100 above.

If you enjoy the outdoors but don't like winter it can be a difficult season. If you like winter there is much to do especially if there is snow. Skiing, sledding, skating and snowmobiling are just some of the things you can do.

What is your great outdoors pleasure? Escape the stuffing leadership office and enjoy the expanse of the world around you and get out and find the outdoor pleasure. You will soon find the stress of leading escaping in the air.

I would love to hear what others like to do in the great outdoors?
