1000 Hours Outside

We decided to spend @1000hoursoutside in 1 year. We have officially logged our first 100 hours and wow, what a journey it has been so far!

Things I am loving:
-Being intentional about getting outdoors every day, including a walk every morning
-Feeling more regulated (E and me) as a result of spending time outside
-Getting to literally feel the change of the seasons from summer to fall
-Forming a new habit of choosing to be outside more often

Things that have been challenging:
-Our yard is a mess right now, so we haven’t been able to spend much time outside at home. We are having to walk/drive other places
-The smoke from the wildfires in CA kept us cooped up inside for many days

Goals as we continue on this journey:
-Work on being able to spend more time outdoors at home
-Letting E explore off of the park blanket in the dirt, sand, leaves, etc
-Go on more hikes
-Find new outdoor spaces to explore
