I thought Brian's zeal and enthusiasm was super admirable. I would like to develop an attitude like his that I am willing, positive and interested in finding a way to do the things in my life that seem impossible.

In our personal training this week we learned a lot about the benefits of outdoor recreation:
Outdoor Activities includes water sports such as sailing, canoeing, kayaking; snow based programs such as downhill and cross country skiing, snow machining, ice fishing; land based activities such as camping, rock climbing, hiking bicycling, riding horses, fishing and hunting.
