Riding a snowmobile. I can never get enough of winter activities to do. When my big brother-in-law learned that I would be visiting Maine, he made sure that a day camp at LongPond, Parsonsfield would be part of my itinerary. He got everything ready. His snowmobile was properly licensed /registered.
Before heading out to the lake, my brother-in-law had me try the ride. He taught me some things I needed to learn. Like most rides, snowmobiles have brakes, and they came in quite handy. My brother-in-law was so patient in teaching me how to ride. He rode at my back, led me, let me do the straight and turns. I managed to ride the snowmobile by myself. While riding around the lake area, I saw how beautiful and spectacular the place was; it was one hell of a ride. I did the mountain trail, reached the top and paused to appreciate the breathtaking view of the white mountain and the white lake. I felt privileged to have experienced this kind of thrill.
Building a snowman. It has always been my dream of building a snowman. I finally got my chance when my favorite sister brought me to Cape Elizabeth in Maine. She brought me there so I could see the remarkable Portland Headlight. While we were walking and admiring the marvelous view of the place, I noticed a family of four frolicking and building a snowman. I started thinking of having a photo with the snowman beside me once it’s done. To my surprise, that awesome family waved at us. I instantly asked them if I can join and help them build the snowman and they welcomed me in an instant. We rolled three balls of snow in different sizes, then stacked them on top of one another from biggest to smallest. Minutes passed and we’re done. We decorated the packed snowman. And I ended up with another granted wish.
Winter is truly a beautiful time. It’s easy to have fun in this kind of weather. However, be prepared for the cold. If you would like to get pleasure from it, make certain that you won’t freeze outside. Think about layers. Always wear thermal leggings and several layers under your sweater. Add a hat and gloves to your outfit. It will definitely help prevent you from getting sick.
I always find it satisfying to finally be able to do things on my bucket lists. Those particular lists are moments in life. I work really hard to create those moments and make them more meaningful. At all times, I find greater happiness and contentment as I set my goals and work towards checking off the items on my bucket list. Life is a journey that we should all enjoy.
