Yes, you must try something different every once in a while or you’ll get stale. Eleanor Roosevelt said, “Do something that scares you every day!”
I don’t agree. That seems a little extreme, but an adventure isn’t one if there are no surprises.
Our recent boat trip took us 100 miles up to the Thumb of Michigan. Even though the weather forecast was for smooth waters, the boat got tossed around on Lake Huron for two hours.
The ride back home on Saturday, however, was fantastic because we had the current pushing us along on a bright, sunny day. It took us 8 1/2 hours going against the current and 6 hours returning.
Like all adventures, there were things we liked and those that were a challenge.
The bottom line is that I feel refreshed and happy that we did it!
If not today, when?
