In this often crazy, sometimes wild and mixed up world, we often strive for understanding. Sometimes we achieve that understanding. Sometimes we don't. Sometimes, hopefully more often than not, we find solace in simplicity.
Simplicity has a certain interconnection to it. To me (and hopefully to you if your choosing to read this blog) nature holds within itself a certain simplicity. I want to be able to capture that easily achievable simplicity through nature in these blog posts.
As was introduced, I want to help reveal to readers that outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, boating, etc, are not and should not be limited to the athletically "superior." Again I say simplicity! I want to reveal those laid back outdoor experiences that everyone can enjoy.
I want to consider as much as possible my own parameters for laying out outdoor advice. I fear, and please if I am leading down this road then correct me, that I may be so centrally focused on my perceived definition of simplicity that I may miss giving some good layouts of hikes (etc). Like, just as a "for instance," I don't want to assume that the "lazy hiker" only wants to be outside for 30 mins at a time and be carried to the destination.
In order to avoid pigeonholing like this I want to include as many local places as possible. That way, if readers are indeed local themselves, they can help steer the lazy hiker. In the future if I suggest an outdoor activity and its to long, to short, not as appealing as I thought, etc please, please, please let me know below by commenting on the post.
