Getting outdoors

Pushing thru my agoraphobia and getting outside to ride and take photos, I guess this is a test to see if I can share a 360 degree photo here. I have a nice day yesterday riding to my local state park. It is one of the few places I can ride to without having to use my truck to move my EBike.

The 360 on my Facebook: facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10...

i love going outdoors 😁 nice that you went to a park .

Nice picture Boston. Good for you fighting back against the agoraphobia. It’s great that park is nearby. It looks like a relaxing and peaceful place.

Wonderful job pushing through and getting out there. It looks so peaceful.

I went to the ocean today. Windy and quite cool.

Have a great long weekend. Keep up the good work

I think I can honestly say I have never regretted going for a hike/ride.

Good job Boston001 in pushing through Looks like you found a quiet scenic

place to just breathe. I've been on that long road to recovery with Agoraphobia.

I didn't have a beautiful place like yours to go to, so I went to the Dollar Tree one of

my favorite places and it worked. lol

As you get lost in your thoughts with happier ones, agoraphobia will take a

back seat. Continued good luck :) xx

That is a beautiful spot-so scenic! Great job getting out there. I struggle with agoraphobia too, although it’s probably not apparent to people who don’t know me well. This is motivating to me. I live in congested Southern California, so I envy your gorgeous and open surroundings!

This is inspirational. Thank you for sharing 😊

I tried the 360. Bad idea. Gotta lie down, the room is spinning.

🤣 if you were using your phone you can point the phone, it's less dizzying than swiping. I love that little camera. it does all kinds of neat stuff my expensive camera can't dream of

Naw, I'm on a laptop. If I wouldn't have tried to spin, I'd have been cosy. It's a lovely spot.
