My Favorite Springtime Activity …

It is finally springtime and everyone is out and about. Everyone loves Spring since it is a transition from winter to warmer weather. Springtime is when everyone wants to be outside and enjoy the comforting weather. Everyone is coming out of “hibernation” and transitioning into activities that are outside that make them smile. The reason I love Spring is not just because of the warm weather, but because of Spring Break. Spring Break is a time to relax and rewind. Even if you do not travel anywhere for Spring Break, you are taking time for yourself to catch up with family and rewind the mind. I usually travel for Spring Break. My family’s go to vacation spot is Florida. The specific spot we go is Marco Island. Marco Island holds a special place in my heart. I have been traveling here since I was little. It is one of my favorite activities to do during springtime. The resort we stay at is magical. Everyone working at the resort is super upbeat and wants to make sure your stay is successful. When I attend this resort, I not only am spending time with my family, but also some of my closest friends. Spending time with family and friends on a beach is always a great time. Sharing laughs, conversations, and the rays of sunshine with all of these people is one of my favorite things to do. Florida is one of my favorite places to go during springtime. I love rewinding my mind and focusing on things that make me happy. I enjoy traveling, especially during Spring. It is always a nice time to travel.

My Perfect Day…

One of the best things in life is to spend a day doing things that make you happy. My perfect day would consist of the following. It would be a sunny day in October with a slight breeze to feel like fall weather. I would start my day by waking up and taking my dogs on a long walk around my neighborhood. After a nice, long walk, I would drive to my favorite yoga studio and spend an hour doing yoga. Yoga helps my mind rewind and relax for the rest of the day. After yoga, I would head to my favorite smoothie place to get a large, healthy smoothie. After finishing my smoothie, I would drive around town for a little to look at the fall leaves and enjoy the sunshine outside. Since the weather is so nice outside, I would spend time outside on my back patio with my dogs. I would play country music and lay down in the sunshine with my dogs. After relaxing, I would take a nice, long shower. I would do a face mask afterwards and make myself a nice lunch. Later in the night, I would love to spend time with friends and go to a concert. Listening to live music is one of my favorite things to do. If I could choose an artist to see in concert, it would be Luke Combs. His music makes me happy. Country music in general makes me feel good. Later at night, I would make s’mores with my friends and enjoy the fall night. This would be my perfect day.
