undefinedI enjoy being in the outdoors. Hunting and fishing are ways that I like to relax and get away form the stress of life., Camping is another way that I enjoy relieving stress and is a hobby that I share with my family as well. On coming trips we often take our canoes and will spend time floating the rivers and creeks in the area to have a little private family time. These activities I have enjoyed even as a child and have continued to do them not only a stress relief but also as activates to spend time with my family.
