I’m used to planned outings and most times it’s either your expectations are met or not.. so predictable.
I enjoyed reading how the trip was unintended and spontaneous. Like you said it was just the two of you and it was perfect.
It’ll be nice to cultivate this habit, sometimes you need a drive to no where. Just you, yours and nature.
We mostly live structured lives, it feels safe, comfortable and predictable...but sometimes one needs to step out of the box and do something different, that's what this day trip was about.
