I don’t know about all of you out there but for us date nights have been a little mundane and way to predictable. Going out to dinner is wonderful but there is so much more fun to be had than enjoying a good meal together. This past Saturday we decided to mix it up and do something different. I suggested 3 options; downhill skiing, snowboarding and snowtubing. Mike was shocked and thought I had lost my mind. (He’s not crazy about the cold and neither am I but I thought we needed some fresh air.) But as the day progressed and he knew that I was serious I think he warmed up to the idea of doing something more adventurous, out of the norm. So Saturday at 4:00pm we set out to Buck Hill and had loads of fun. We laughed and screamed all the way down the hill. We tried to imagine that we were on the zip line in Cabo as we were getting towed up the hill. We decided to take a few photo’s to capture the memory and have as proof for those who’d never believe it. My husband has a great sense of humor. As we were paying the ticket guy he said that he wanted to pay for 15 minutes worth. We were standing next to a family that had facemasks to protect their faces and I said honey, we need some of those. To which he replied, I need more than that, I need a plastic bubble with a heater. We did make it down the hill more than a few times. Now we have great ideas of other adventures we’d like to try next. It’s great to step out of the norm and do something wild. Okay it may not be wild for some of you but for us it was wild. We are getting older, the body does’t bounce back the way it used to.
