Sometimes the greatest adventures can be found where you least expect it and when it is one filled with special memories of a time spent with loved ones it is even more special. Adventures don't have to take you far from home because they can be hiding just around a corner or behind a tree.
When we moved to Florida we didn't know what to expect ~ when you're a little kid anything different or new seems like an adventure. The house we moved into was so much fun especially the backyard. Though we had yet to hear of The Secret Garden we had found ours. There were trees we had never before seen and Spanish moss that cascaded from the branches creating a hidden world in which to play. There was a small winding trail between the trees which could become a tropical jungle or a magical fairyland. And just beyond the fence was the best thing we could have ever hoped for (though maybe not for my parents) we had a railroad track that was well used each day. When we'd be out playing a train sounded its whistle that was our signal to run along the fence and pretend to blow a whistle of our own which the engineer was more than happy to answer with another blast of his own whistle.
These adventures were ones of our own making and imagination which have stayed with us through the years. These memories are now an adventure in the retelling to those who were not part of the making.
Each day can be an adventure you just have to be ready for it to find you and one that is shared is more enjoyable.
