Do You Hike?

A hike a day keeps the doctor away. Wait, wasn't it something else that kept them away?

Do you love to hike? Do you hike alone? With friends? Or with family? Hiking is like a exercise. Some don't think so. If you really think about it, you're climbing over fallen trees, climbing moderate mountains, walking down trails and all such of stuff. To some, like serial killers, it's a place to murder or bury a body. Me? It's a nature palace where I can smoke ganja and not get judgement from animals and spirits that roam there. I also, before I became a mother, used to swim in the river, nude, in an isolated area. Nature is a very kind place.

I wish people can see the things I see there. I wish people could stop littering this poor Earth. This planet is ours for so long until it decides it wants to blow up on us or when Mother Nature says, "Hey you little shit turds, I'll wipe you all out with natural disasters." Earth and nature are spectacular. Mountains, rivers, lakes, oceans, volcanoes, rainforests. I mean, look at it. Millions and billions of years that formed them. Sure, there is another planet that's located in another galaxy, that we can live on but this Earth will always be ours. So why not take care of it? So much beauty here. So much to hike and sightseeing everything.

I found this great website where you can host or join with local moms or families. I signed up but haven't done anything yet because of my social anxiety. But I will eventually. You can host it anywhere in the world. They ain't very picky on where you have it at, just has long it's at a nature park. And make sure you wear comfortable shoes and dress for the occasion. HIB is for beginners to expert incline hikers. The sign up is free for up three months and then you'll have to pay. HIB also have challenges but you have to be a paid subscriber. You can also bring along your furry friends. You might just make some hiking mom friends. Check them out!

This website takes you to sign up your child/children ages twelve and under for Adventure Club if you reside in Ohio. They have nice programs to join up on. Adventure Club has everything from bird watching to nature walking. Right now, they let you sign up for free. I think you had to pay for it last year. I'm sure your children would love this.

If you need help with a day worth of hiking, this is your go-to place. This website helps you by learning how to pack a back bag, how to hike with your dogs and many more. It's a very useful website I've ever seen. I wouldn't have shared it if it wasn't. They also have a volunteer program where you can stay at certain sites and fix up nature parks. This program can range from New York to Florida to Colorado.

You should be out there! What's taking so long?

Instead of being in the house all day, do something outside. Plenty of things to do and see. Go to a beach, take a stroll in the nature park, go to a playground with your kids, go to the Grand Canyon, do whatever that fits your agenda. There is so much to discover. Mountains to climb, trails to walk on, bring a canvas and paint a scenery and so on. Do what makes you think nature.

So why are you still sitting here? Go outside. Go! Now!
