Exploring back roads in my Jeep. It&#8217;s a kick to be able to go places I wouldn&#8217;t dare try in a car.<\/p>\n<p>8. Play on the computer. I didn&#8217;t touch my first computer until I was over 30, and I haven&#8217;t been without one since.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/box5379.temp.domains\/~pjmaclay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1954-1024x938.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"1466\" data-original-width=\"1600\" height=\"293\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/box5379.temp.domains\/~pjmaclay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1954-1024x938.jpg?resize=320%2C293\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a>7. Talk to people. Or at least observe them from a distance. People&#8217;s individual stories are amazing. We are a weird collection, we humans.<\/p>\n<p>6. Needlepoint. I love how it combines both artistic and mathematical components.<\/p>\n<p>5. Be outside. Whether it&#8217;s doing yard work, going for a walk, shoveling snow or going for a hike, I like being outside.<\/p>\n<p>4. Writing my stories. Now sharing them with my readers means they have to be edited first, (which I don&#8217;t enjoy!) and that&#8217;s what knocks this down from on the list.<\/p>\n<p>3. Reading. I love to read. I don&#8217;t read as much as I used to because life happens.<\/p>\n<p>2. Play with my grandkids. Okay, play with the oldest and hold the little one. Especially as he&#8217;s starting to smile.<\/p>\n<p>1. You knew this was coming. Spending time in the mountains with my hubby. Whether its a couple of days or a couple of hours, I&#8217;ll take it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/box5379.temp.domains\/~pjmaclay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_0338-1024x768.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"1200\" data-original-width=\"1600\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/box5379.temp.domains\/~pjmaclay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_0338-1024x768.jpg?resize=400%2C300\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>What&#8217;s your Top Ten?<\/p>\n<p>November 27, 2017 \u2013 Top 10 \u2013 Share your top 10 favorite movies, books or things to do.<br \/>\nRules:<br \/>\n1.
