Nothing very dangerous though. No one fell from a tree or through ice on a creek. Poison ivy was about as bad as it got.<br /><br />We were never as daring as your pals. It does sound like fun...except for the cold, rainy bits.<br /><br />Thank you for the meditation instruction in your prior post I am going to try that technique. Meditation is something I've returned to over and over, over the years.<br /><br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677133322409652783.post-42291475444881835002014-03-02T08:10:34.517-11:002014-03-02T08:10:34.517-11:00Ah Ashen, my very best wishes to your son.

And I would love to read of your wild and scary games some time. :)<br /><br />I must confess that, several hours later, as the rain lashes and the wind whips and the dark has descended, I'm rather glad to be by the warmth of the fire and not in a tiny tent on Dartmoor. Though, then again... :)Exmoorjanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09230395732150659356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677133322409652783.post-17358761010342711292014-03-02T02:29:21.224-11:002014-03-02T02:29:21.224-11:00Enjoyable post.

My son, though no less adventurous, is now a 'grown up' in his 30s and to be married this year.<br /><br />Wishing your son best fun ☼Ashenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12394940341184140915noreply@blogger.com
