You hit the nail on the head. When I walk a "familiar" route that I've driven for years, I see houses that I never saw before. Driving, I'm busy watching out for tail lights, bumpers, and fenders. Walking, I have time to observe.

Same applies when switching from a motor boat into a paddle craft. "Where'd THAT tree come from?"

Indeed. Purty gal.....yours? :wink:

Work extra hard ta pick the rite times 'n make her outdoor trips fun (even if it means takin' Barbie along). That way, after she passes beyond the Dad-as-credit-card phase, she will come back with her pals ta show 'em how much fun there iz in a tent, a canoe, round a stickfire, etc.
