To me, the outdoors means stepping into another world, one without the burden of modern life. It means a breath of fresh air, literally and metaphorically speaking. It means accepting whatever weather nature has to offer, be it rain or sun, sleet, snow or gale-force winds, and making an adventure of it. It means being satisfied with the simple pleasures of life. Though after the long walk and prolonged exposure to the outdoors, it is exceedingly pleasant to sit down and have a drop of whiskey.
