Hmmmmmm - my favourite thing? I always have trouble choosing ONE favourite anything, whether it's food, colour, flower, etc.
I think my very-best-favourite thing is this:
Snorkelling. Since I go camping in June at Killbear, sometimes the water is still sorta cold. But I love snorkelling. I love lying, floating on the top of the water - just lying there drifting & looking at the amazing underwater world.
At Killbear, a large part of the shorline is rock...huge rocks, small rocks, rock shelves, rock cave-like structures. So it makes it VERY interesting.
My most favourite snorkelling experience was this:
Floating along parallel to the rock/cliff part of the shore. There were various fish here & there & the coolest thing is that they just LOOK at me! I guess they think I'm just another fish!! So anyway, I was floating along looking at the fish & I swam (or floated) into a 'school' of about 12 fish. They were about 10 inches long (I don't know it in centimeters - about ahand & a half long, including fingers). They swam towards me & sort of surrounded me & I was PART of the school!!!!!!!!! It was totally wonderful. I was smiling so much I had to be careful that water didn't get into my mouth around the edges of the snorkel tube thingy.I also love sitting by the water in a comfy chair with my feet up on a rock & hearing the water sounds as I read.
The first year I went camping by myself was actually 2000 - the first year I was a member here at PsychoBabble. I had been here maybe a few weeks; I'd just started taking Celexa & had come here for support & info. I really missed being able to come to PB!! I had hardly ever done anything all by myself in my life, so it took a little getting used to...even going for a long walk along the shore was a big deal for me.
thx for asking.....you should know better than to give me a chance to 'spout off' - I tend to go on & on!!!!!
hugs, Kath
