Taking the Boat Out for the Day

There’s just something about being out on the lake or the ocean that makes me really happy. So, I decided to rent a boat for a few hours to enjoy the day by myself. I could’ve invited some people to join me, but I just wasn’t in the mood for anybody to mess up my vibe.

Being out on the water is like hitting the reset button for me. My life could be falling apart, and I couldn’t care less. I’ve even taken a boat out in the middle of a rainstorm. Not the smartest idea, but I loved every minute of it.

Today, though, was hot and sunny with clear skies. The lake I was on was more brown in color than the blue water I’m used to after living in Florida for many years, but it’ll do. The small pontoon boat I was on could probably fit about eight people, but I just enjoyed all the space to myself.

I couldn’t go as fast as I wanted because a lot of tree branches were down due to a bad storm recently. So now I’m thinking that next time I’m going to take the boat out on the river, so I can have more space and fewer restrictions to go as fast as I want.

But even with those limitations, it was still a perfect day on the water. Sometimes, all you need is a little time alone on a boat to reset and recharge.
