    Climbing. Particularly indoor climbing as it's very social.

    Anything with my little one. Sledding /snow fights in the winter, walking or gardening in the spring, fall and summer. Just today after I finished a circuit, he really wanted to go outside...we played a bit, then I told him I needed more exercise (I had 20 more mins. left before I was satisfied lol) so we jogged around the house for what seemed like forever. Really we did maybe 12 mins. He still didn't get enough...so we ran up and down the two hills for the remainder of the time. I can't believe he kept up! Needless to say he's taking an extended nap today. LOL

    Hiking!! I absolutely love it! :love: I live in Las Vegas, and we are surrounded by beautiful mountains. My hubby and I try to get out every weekend for a nice long hike. I love seeing the plants and wildlife. I've had a couple of close encounters with Desert Bighorn Sheep in the mountains around LV.

    Hiking is challenging, but it doesn't seem like work. We've climbed Mount Charleston Peak, which is almost 12,000 feet. It was really cool to get above the treeline. Didn't make it this summer, but next year we plan to hike into the Grand Canyon to Phantom Ranch and back from the North Rim.
