Mini-Adventure

Most of our family adventure time includes outdoor activities. We are frugal. There's no two ways about it. Plus, why explore man-made (germ filled?) activity areas when we can be outside in the fresh, damp, BC air. We love to "treasure hunt" (commonly referred to as geocashing), go to the beach about a 5 minute walk away, play in the park, fly planes, work in the yard...etc.

With the chill in the air this week, the tail end of this nasty cold virus clinging to us for dear life, and frankly a bit of cabin coop-up, we decided to venture out. Straying from the norm, we headed on a Mini-Adventure we told the boys. Less creative than usual perhaps. But it was fun. It was a special treat. We all had a blast.
We played together.
We ran hard.
We sanitized after.
It was money well spent.
It was a morning thoroughly enjoyed.
We'll do it again...after some more beach and park time.

Nothing beats that.
