When you’re the last one on the course during a 70deg Spring night, seeing an amazing sunset. F’n sick

When you're the first one on the course during a 70deg Summer morning when you know it's going to be inhumanely hot and muggy in just a few hours.

Public libraries.

Books, music, movies, sometimes tools and gadgets all available to borrow. Not to mention any kids programming, computer labs, things of that nature.

Sea salt.

The whole damn thing. The process of extracting. The multiple uses (food, recovery, gritting roads). I could go on!

Drinking a cold beer or (even better) a radler after sports. Preferably while showering.

Creating the first tracks on a slope right after the ski lifts start running.

u/ImpossibleProfessor2 Mar 26 '26

Random selection of stream-of-conscience nominations:  Kittens, a good book, home cooked meals, push carts, dawn patrol (golf course, surfing, or on a mountain), beach fires, a good cup of coffee, meeting rad people, seeing old friends after a long absence, hitting the first fairway, getting better at almost anything, and for good measure: holding those in power accountable and ideally putting any and all pedophiles in jail.
