Out in the Mountains
.2 ' - g

Well, no one has sent us any questions
so we guess no one wants to hear our
advice. Fortunately, that doesn't stop us
from giving it anyway!! Since this is our
Valentine’sDay issue, let’ s talk about love
and romance. It's freezing cold outside so
it's time to cuddle, make someone blush,
along with other warming activities.
Please note that several of these sugges-
tions can be enjoyed by one, two, or more
people, and often at very little cost.

Here are some suggestions:

1) Traditional but still worthwhile - go out
to dinner, and finger!

2) If you want to stay home, try a bottle of
champagne and chocolate kisses.

3) Reminisce (first date, first kiss...)

4) Read aloud, while in a bath - note reading
suggestions below.

5) For those with access to a VCR, rent
Qesgufieans and watch it AGAIN.

6) Flowers. Another traditional move, but
almost always appreciated.

7) Write silly poetry.

8) Want to have a quiet evening at home?
You might want to try a jigsaw or cross-
word puzzle. Or maybe you can dig around
in that messy closet for a favorite old game
(our current “golden oldie” is Mousetrap).

9) Make or buy corny Valentine’s Day
cards. We especially like the ones with
flowers and lace that say, “To My Darling
Wife.”

10) How about a treasure hunt around your
house or apartment? It takes some plan-
ning, but can be lots of fun. Perhaps the
treasure can be a stack of “gift” certificates
for a free hug, kiss, (or whatever) upon
request
