If you have a camera, take that as well, something will happen, you will start to see things in a different way, you will start to notice the smallest thing, and the furthest away, with the benefit of being able to share it with others if it is posted on here.
I heartily agree.
Get yourself a large helping of green pleasure, and your health will benefit...you sleep better, you get some perspective on life and you could be delivering a taste of the country to someone (who for whatever reason) would get little chance otherwise to see it.....and when you give a little joy to someone else you always get a little dusting of it yourself.
