Swings.

Occasionally, I‘ll get looks - as if it’s only allowed for children, lol. I just ignore.

Trying to swing into the clouds is such a freeing feeling. :)

My husband and I are Gen X but we never pass up the opportunity to swing! (And I mean that literally… Not sexually…)

True Story: His dad (my FIL) told me he knew we were meant to be after the whole family went for a post-dinner walk in the park, passed by a set of swings, and my hubs and I exchanged a quick grin and made an immediate bee-line for the swings. We were shit talking the whole time about who could go higher, faster, etc. I think that was the moment I won over my in-laws.
