Back to the water…
What is it that stimulates our mind, body, and spirit when we are next to water?
Does the mind, body, spirit stimulation change when we immerse ourselves in the water?
We are 80% water, so maybe our connection is ancestral.
When we immerse ourselves in water with a comfortable temperature – a temp we can spend hours in without discomfort – it’s uniquely stimulating in endless ways for endless people.

From the Idaho-Washington border (where i went to college), it was a six-hour drive across Washington State to get to Seattle. Then we began heading south to Los Angeles.
We drove down highway 101, the Pacific Coast Highway, most of the way, until it made sense to get on I-5. Our destination was my cousin’s relative’s house.
After spending a day or two there, we hit the road again for home (Pennsylvania).
In a thing called a phone booth, we called home on Christmas day from somewhere in the middle of nowhere Texas on I-10.
It’s kind of a miracle we made home safely, considering what we did in the car all those long hours of driving.
Grateful for how it didn’t turn out.
