[quote=Anonymous][quote=doodlebug]Start slow and most importantly, have the right gear for the circumstances. It's not fun if you don't have rain gear and it's raining or you don't have warm enough gear or dry enough gear for the snow etc.

Comfortable, waterproof shoes and a rain shell are good starting points. Mostly, just get outside! Go on walks. Go for easy hikes and pack a lunch to have out and about at the hike. Try snowshoeing when the weather comes...easier and cheaper than skiiing. Go outside and kick a ball with the kids. If you have a dog, throw a ball/stick for the dog and run and play w/ the dog. Rake leaves and jump in... things like that.  I think some people are just naturally more outdoorsy than others, but I think even indoor people can learn to enjoy being outside if they have the right gear for the conditions. I hated being outside until I figured that out. Being overly wet/cold are kind of deal breakers for me.[/quote]

Where do you go snowshoeing around here??  i would love to take the kids.  Used to do this in NE.  [/quote]
