My biggest stress relief: going to the hills!

Back from a short trip to the hills...where we did lots and lots of walking. There wasn't too much time to sit back and relax, but we did get a bit of time to do that as well. Life is just so different the moment you step out of the car in the hills, things look different, the mind gets refreshed just from the thought of being in the hills and everything looks simpler and brighter. Maybe its all a mindset, and everything remains the same, but it's all the way one reacts to it in the end. For all round relaxation, I love going to the hills even more than the beach....sound of the wind in the pines beats the sound of the surf.
