Oh I love my home time. I could cook, garden, clean, read, knit and find all sorts of things to do all day long. And I do! But now that I'm home all day, every day with Baby, I also love a good adventure. Preferably with a babysitter for him! :)

Easy for me, I am definitely a homebody. Having escaped the city for our country place six years ago, I have no longing whatsoever to return to the city. As a matter of fact, it is so peaceful and quiet here, I find the city a sensory overload. I always have work to do, many projects on the go, and I love to learn anything new, so I can always keep myself occupied and content. Di

HHMM...I guess for me it would be stay at home....But, I do love a good outing. But no shopping. Museum, Library, concert, hiking, visiting friend or family. I don't know, I guess I am a 50-50.... Kate |

It would be home for sure. I have never been much of a traveler and my best days are always the days where I never leave my driveway.

My first choice would definitely be gone,gone ,gone exploring the world, I love other countries. I think I was a gypsy or pirate in another life :) But then I like to stay home other times and garden and sew,spin,bead. Not see anyone or answer the phone. it is a hard question but easy too |

For me, home is best, I've been a lot of places and comming home always makes me happy, never bored here, always lots to do, and people seem to come to me, so I don't have to go far. My big outings are the LOCAL stores and of course garage sales when I can go. NANCY JO |

What I really want is to be a snowbird. Live in Texas from the last week in September to mid-May. Then fly north to Maine for the summer.
Actually I love to travel...at some point after we retire I want to visit more of my country. I'll have to do it without hubby as he hates museums. I on the other hand love historical museums....with a passion.

I'm with Buttercup on this one. I love to be at home. There are tons of stuff to do here. And even as a junior high and high school student I could never understand people who hated snow days because they had nothing to do. But with a friend it is so much fun to run the roads. Get lost, eat in strange and occassionally disreputable places. But mind you I'm not a big city person, most of my adventures have been on the back roads not on the super highways.

I'd love to cheat and say I'd adventure from morning to mid-afternoon and then stay at home, but you said just one, soooooo . . . since I'm living in a 17' camper, I'd go adventuring
When I was in my house, it would have been to stay home.

Adventure for sure!
favorite adventure was back when my two oldest were 2 and 6 monthes. We packed our bags spurr of the moment and drove to Florida, staying in Orlando, Fort Lauderdale and then finally the Keys, where we ran out of money and had to sleep in our station wagon. I got my dad to wire me money and we headed home after about a 2 week trip. It was one of our most favorite trips! Ah the things we do when we are young.

Like everyone else, that's gonna depend on the day...I do love a quiet day at home doing things I love, but if you come up with a great road trip, I'm already in the car. I LOVE car trips! So much to see & do along the way. The interstate is boring...give me the scenic route! Rhonda
...and I will sing at the top of my lungs, and I will dance, even if I'm the only one! |

I love to be at home, doing the simple things that make this house run smoothly. (Most of the time!) But, get me behind the wheel of a car and something takes over and I am off to whereever it takes me. My mom, friend Cilla and sister Dayna are the adventure queens. "Road trip!" is our motto!! When Ainslie was younger, we would take Mother-Daughter trips together. We haven't done that in a few years. Hmmm, maybe that would be a nice way to end her senior year!! I'm getting out my maps!
