Outside of the Office

I emphatically enjoy getting outdoors and taking a nice stroll through a wooded area. The coolness of the shade, the sounds of the birds, and the smell of honeysuckle or pine really lift the spirits. Bonus points if there is a babbling brook within earshot. For these reasons, Ricketts Glen State Park has been one of my absolute favorite hikes. Even though it's a bit out of the way for a day trip, I've made a point to visit twice.
