Things that make me Smile

I was contemplating this weekend and thought I would write down some things that make me smile:



  • high alpine valleys
  • watching kids play hockey
  • seeing my family at our ranch
  • entering a new country with just my back pack
  • waking up, unzipping the tent flap and seeing the early morning in the mountains
  • seeing my garden grow
  • fresh picked rasberries
  • seeing someone have an aha moment
  • kids splashing in a lake
  • a sunrise or sunset over the ocean
  • the way the body feels after a long period of exercise
  • watching and hearing a hawk ride a thermal
  • a cup of coffee in the morning
  • hearing the coyotes howl late at night
  • street food
  • the reflection of the mountains on a lake
  • seeing my kids accomplish something they worked towards
  • my dogs sitting at my side
  • clean sheet day 
  • freshly cut grass
  • scuba diving and seeing a new sea creature for the first time 
  • a warm fire after being in the cold for a long period of time
  • older people holding hands
  • getting above treeline after a long walk
  • seeing fish in a stream
  • glaciers
  • driving down a highway or road I have never been on
  • talking with a stranger in a town or city I have never been in before
  • the smells and sounds of the jungle
  • reading a book
  • listening to live music
Of course this list is not all inclusive but just some things that I was thinking about.
