New experiences

One reason I moved here was to have new experiences. I love the opportunity to see new places - especially in nature, for the first time. I've also met many wonderful people in my new environment. I am an extrovert and a home body all all the same time. I actually like my own company. It may sound weird but when I have time to myself I can think and contemplate life and where I'm going. However, when I have been on my own too much I look for things to do, places to go and people to hang out with.

This is one of the reasons I joined MeetUp.com because I can meet local folks while doing activities I enjoy. I am most active in the hiking group but I also belong to a Wine tasting group and Vegan group. This past weekend I met with the Wine group and we toured 3 local vineyards and then enjoyed a 2 hour Jet-boat ride on the Rogue River. It was a beautiful day on the river and as a water lover that was my favorite part of the activity. I also enjoyed visiting the 3 vineyards for the first time. There are many vineyards here and I'd only visited a couple prior to this. 

As my new adventures continue here are a few photos of this weekend activity.
