Default How much time

How much time do you and your family spend outdoors? We spend most of every weekend outdoors hiking, camping, fishing, swimming...doing something unless the weather gets bad.

We don't spend enough time outside at all. I go hiking about every other weekend, when it's not raining and everybody has time off work. I try to go out in the yard and do some gardening about once a week. I camp once or twice a year usually. Not often enough!

I'm the only one in my family who enjoys the outdoors. The wife and daughter don't get out and my son does his own thing with his friends. So I spend as much time as I can away from home. Nice "me time"! I really don't get out as much as I'd like to though.

As much time as possible,I work outside so the only thing I'm really inside for is to eat and sleep. As far as doing what I enjoy outside at least 1 of the weekend days, and the weather has to be real bad to keep me in.The only thing rain does is limit the list of people to go with.

We like to be outside a good bit during part of the year but summers here are really too hot to do much outdoors. Plus the air quality is so bad right now I don't want my kids out in it.

I think a better question for me is how much time do I spend indoors? Generally, I sleep there.

We spend a lot of time outdoors (as much as we can). I have an indoor job and the kids are in school so in the evenings we are outside as much as possible. There is nothing better than fresh country air.
