My workshop, where I can be creative or destructive or just tinkering about or hang out with my dog, enjoying my time. Unfortunately, I was just evicted, as the little building will be demolished and replaced by "gentrification"...

I have a big mesquite tree in my front yard that’s a great shady spot to sit and think.

Go kart track to do a few laps and focus on the lap times for that session

That tingling feeling of possibilities when you enter, smell the air and look around at everything where you left it

I'm not telling you my secret space. Then it wouldn't be a secret.

The smell of wood!

I used to live in walking distance from a national forest.
Next to a lake in that forest was a little patch of moss and tree cover that you could only reach by crossing a natural bridge made of downed trees. Less of an island and more of a ball of roots with enough moss to be soft to sit on.
As far as I know, I was the only person alive who knew about the spot. I’d spend whole days there enjoying the quiet.

If I can't go out for a walk? My bookshelves, any public library, a (used) bookstore.

I live right next to the black forest, so I'm privileged to have a lot of nice natural areas nearby. One of my favorite places is a secluded forest hut, which I can reach in about 45 minutes with my MTB. It has a nice view over the surrounding mountains with no other buildings or roads in sight. Once spent a few hours there waiting for thunderstorms to pass, which was a strangely calming experience.

Does there really have to be grass?

It's no secret. I live there. We have a huge property in the mountains with no neighbors in sight and that borders a national forest. The nights are pitch black with a million stars. And if the weather sucks and I can't go out, then I have seven cats and three dogs that keep me entertained.

Dangerous. Expansive. Beautiful. I'll struggle there for a while, then inevitably see "YOU DIED" before I try again...

Lol, I got blasted and verbally attacked on Reddit once for telling people I won't tell them the hidden gems in the city because it'll turn to trash like all the other gems that were once..gems.

The community center pool. It's nice to just float around for an hour in warm water.

Lakes. I live in Louisiana so it’s more “water” than freshwater lakes but during the pandemic, I’d just go out to a lake and cast a fishing pole with no bait and be outside with something to do. I wasn’t interested in catching anything. I just wanted to do something and sit by the water.

Fly fishing would probably be similar. I just want an activity and some water. I can get fish at the store if I catch zero. It’s about being on the water and enjoying a nice day.

Might sound corny, but books are my escape.
In a physical sense, my condo building has a rooftop deck with a beautiful view, and I spend a lot of time there.
My absolute favorite place, however, is the third-floor balcony of Union Station in Kansas City. I'm a little shocked no one's filmed a rom-com using that space.
