No matter where one lives there are views of summer that just seem to be typical of the lands. Time for plenty of outdoor activities, fun and vacations. It can be a great treat just to explore home locations to find these beautiful scenes waiting quietly for discovery.
One thing I love doing is exploring new areas close to home. It’s not unusual to go from sun up to sun down never seeing the same thing twice all within a 50 mile radius from my driveway, stopping frequently just to get out and walk an old road or public lands that crisscross the area I call home. And the best part is, I know I can return within minutes whenever I want.
Take some time and learn to appreciate all that is close by. The views that make home feel like home, to others it can be a land far far away.
