My Adventurous Side


Today's thankful moment is short and sweet, I've got one of my granddaughters this afternoon, in fact the very one who graces my header only a bit older! I'm praising my advernturous side and let me tell you, there has been a time or two that I felt like "Lucy" getting into trouble! I have been known to break into old abandoned homes just to peek around, explore caves totally unaware and just be slightly risky, not thrill seeking but a bit daring. I just love a good adventure! As a child, I always hoped to find some old buried treasure out in the desert, or a arrow head for that matter. Even today, I'll stop at a old house, look around, take pictures. Living in Nevada was fun with all the old ghost towns, mines and caves but I still manage to be daring here too, always will be. So, I'm thankful for that, it wouldn't be much fun if we didn't take chances now and then, explore the unknown or walk the paths of others before us. Harmless, but fun!

  2. Great bike! I love abandoned buildings too. If I can find a way in, I'm there. Once got into the old Mount Street Church in Baltimore and spent the whole day going from the basement to the belfry by myself. Loved it! Nice to know someone else has that adventurous spirit too. xxoo

  3. I used to do the same kind of explorations as a kid. What fun it was! I wonder if today's kids do that anymore.

  4. I don't know if I would go into a cave~but I love old houses. Hubby and I recently discovered an old church in our area that we didn't even know existed. The floor is falling in, but it is very small and easliy viewed through the door. We are going back to take pictures!
