* I am not ice fishing.
That's a nice photo.
ReplyDeleteI used to enjoy occasional walks in the forest with my husband but a chronic hurty hip says no to that these days. He enjoys kayaking. I went once or twice but it's also not my thing. I do like art/craft shows and painting!

Mary,
DeleteKayaking looks nice but I can’t get the part sbout falling out. 🥴
Bad knees limit where I go.
You are brave to even consider skydiving.
ReplyDeleteMarie,
DeleteI had the idea in the late 1980s that sky diving would cure my acute anxiety. I know it won’t. I still like the idea. 🙂

I am not ice fishing either - there's no way I will walk on frozen water. Too many horror stories of people going through the ice. By the same token I won't be hang gliding or rock climbing either. Can't run because of my knees so hiking is out too. About the only thing on your list that I know I will do is wear a dress but that won't happen until summer. I live in dresses when it's hot.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne,
DeleteDresses in hot weather are the best!

I love wearing dresses in hot weather! And picnics and swimming. Tomorrow we are going on a hike. It will be more than two miles. We want to do these things while we can. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteA good week to you, Lorrie
DeleteI hope your hike was fun.
Am with you on the do not do list. Janice
ReplyDeleteOh, I've always thought ice fishing looked like a neat sport, but no hang gliding for me. ; ) This is such a pretty photo. Have a happy week.
