I noticed that there is quite a bit of tension in the TT air lately and thought that maybe we should try to lighten up our "loads." So, I started the "I Really Like . . ." thread. You can post 3 things you really like.

ALSO, there will be absolutely no negativity on my thread. If I find any I promise all the wrath of a small, a$$ kickin' girl will come down on you. That said, here we go:

I really like day sleeping.
I really like the tent Om gave me.
I really like the way that my daughter thinks her middle and last name should be said as one long last name.

Your turn . . .

Good job Navi. You don't have to have your a$$ whipped today. And didn't it feel good to write about 3 things you really like?

I like backpacking with my kids(sometimes)!

I like vicodin!(because it releaves my hip pain when needed)

I like paxil! (because it keeps my stress down)

Best of ALL, when my little boys on my back saying, "where way up here in the mountains"!!

Cool thread!
I like climbing a new peak and admiring the views.

I like the cool endorphine buzz I get after a long run.

I like knowing my plan to pay off my debts is working and I'll be moving someplace more rural within a year or two!

Prowler, I'm 23 (around your age) and have a daughter. She calls her Kelty kid carrier her "piggy" (as in piggy-back). LOL!

I really like that too.
I also really like how Navi totally hikes his own hike.

Okay, you can add stuff if you want.

I like seeing the wildflowers bloom after a soft desert rain.

I like the smell of the clean air after a thunderstorm.

I like the inner peace that comes with watching deer graze in a mountain meadow.

I like to think that our efforts to save our environment will allow my children and my children's children to enjoy the same things I do.

Prowler, no mentioning sex, or I will have to break my own rule and bring negative thoughts to this thread.

I like:

1)The fact that I'm leaving for Montana in 5 days;
2)To pile all of my gear on the bed and roll in it(not really--I hardly EVER do that);
3)The feeling of being clean after an ice cold swim/bath in the wilderness, after a long day on the trail.

I love the beauty in a moment, that can last a lifetime

I like the promise in a rainbow

I like the way a hot tin roof sounds when it pops from the heat of a noonday sun and then how the tin roof will hiss when the first few raindrops hit the tin roof and the sound the rain makes beating down against the roof as I fall away to sleep

WOW!!!
I like everything that does not cause disharmony in the universe. But without the occasional disharmonious acts...there would be no harmony to speak of, so, I guess I even like disharmony...with that said..

Khatru (my doggie)

good Kharma

Bike riding
