I was looking back at some pictures and I got to thinking about how many different outdoor activities I have been into in the past few years I don't have pictures of everything I have done, but I have a few. I ask you are YOU living the dream?

First off, your photos are awesome! I wouldn't expect any less from you Matty. The first time I saw photos of you hiking up Angels landing in a kilt, I knew you were a special guy. I think the reason I love Bogley so much is because so many of us on here are HERE for the same reasons. We get a certain satisfaction out of being outdoors. So many people DON'T get it and that makes me sad? But it also keeps the wide open space for all of us. HAHA!!!!! Most of us on here DO get it and I'd have to answer YES that I am living my dream. :2thumbs: :rockon:
For sure :2thumbs:
Martin Luther's dream :ne_nau: :roflol:
I've been dreaming about alpine touring sking in the backcountry, winter mountaineering, and white water kayaking. I haven't been living these dreams because of the not knowing the signs of the dangers (avalanch, eddies, etc), proper skills to be proficiant, and haven't found partners that are competent in these and willing to go easy on a scared noob.
But I'd say I'm living my dream. I dream about getting out more. (You'd think working for an internet company would be very progressive and give you tons of PTO, but no.)
chillin' on a beach in thailand right now. i'd say yes... :2thumbs:

Yes, I would say that I am happier than I ever thought I could be. And it's all because of her.

Way cool guys!
If I were to make a collage showing how happy I am, it would be filled with pictures of my little boy, which even I can recognise is not as cool as Alison and ScoutMaster's pictures.
No way, man - that's incredibly cool! The happy dad? That is beautiful!Quote:

Of course that's a wonderful dream and a very cool one!! Our children are our life lines. We do anything for them. They are little extensions of us....of course it's a wonderful dream. I guess maybe my interpretation of what Matty was saying was, are you out there living? Are you doing? Are you seeing? And my answer would be yes. :2thumbs:Quote:

I need to do more outdoor stuff, I haven't been camping in two years, I have all the gear just got tired of doing all the work and hearing compliants from the kids when we got where we were going so I quit. I want to go on more hikes and picnics with them. They really are so much fun to hang out with... when they are not complaining.
I will start camping again this summer, maybe even make down to our property in Duchesne. Haven't been down there since Sarah was 3 months.
No not living the life I would like, but I am sure working on it. But I am happy.
Yes I was specifically talking about Outdoor recreation. But Families are even more important than playing. Love your family and take theme with you. Live your dreams.Quote:

Of all the cool and wonderful dreams I've lived - being a mom has been the all-time coolest! Nothing will ever compare!
As far as the outdoor stuff, yeah, I'm happy with what I've done. I'd like to do more, and will....but work and stuff, ya know gets in the way...
I can't wait to retire! :mrgreen:
You betcha...
Sadly no. I browse this site from my 4x4 foot cubicle and live vicariously through you guys. I'm not complaining mind you. My wife is able to stay home and raise our son. Which for our generation seems seems pretty rare. But no, lately I don't do anything except work. Having a family that appreciates me though makes it completely bearable.
Thank god for Bogley to keep me sane too!
I think what appeals to me about this website is the people that get out there and do their thing. Life is waiting for you to do your part. Just step out into it.
I'm the happiest when we travel and play and meet new people. :nod:
Ahhh yeah, always trying to do my part to help make rainbows...
accadacca you are an IDIOT
Sorry Santa. Naughty list? Not again.
How about this?
