With all that is happening in the USA, lets escape a little.
Most Enjoyable Physical Activities...
Doing the nasty doesn't count, most all of us participate in some way, shape or form.
Drinking or smoking a fine stoogie does not count as a physical activity, nor pushing buttons on VP machines (sorry Jack) correct me if I'm wrong on that one.
At 66 I am obviously not as active as I once was....the mind is willing, but the body is breaking down.
We all have a circle of friends we interact with in activities.
I quit golf, bad back and terrible swing (probably related)
Gave up biking, hard on Mr Prostate.
Gave up bowling, all my friends have lost interest.
I am fortunate in that I stumbled into a group of Co-Ed Water Volleyball Players. I was walking the pool about 6 years ago and they asked me to play.
We play twice a week at the local YMCA pool, 2-2.5 hours.
I was never gifted athletically in High School; but find I am a near superstar at Water Volleyball. Our players range in age from mid 30's to me mid 60's.
I walk both my dogs Lab and Havanese twice daily, I now work around the Oklahoma summer heat....sunrise and sunset walks, probably average a third mile a day at a good pace.
I enjoy starting out each day with a good ten minute stretch accompanied by good music in my upstairs fortress of solitude.
Least enjoyable activity....
mowing the lawn.... 2 weeks ago I hired a Mexican crew as I don't want to buck the Oklahoma heat and mosquitoes. I have cut the lawn with electric mower far too long... They are a fun group, they have recommended
canned Modello beer instead of my Bottled Dos Equis Especial.
Going to pick some up this weekend.
