Feature and Follow: March 15

Alison Can Read Feature & Follow

Q: Activity! Hopefully warm weather for most of us is here soon…so tell us about your favorite outdoor reading spot. Or take a picture.

I generally don't read outside.  Seriously, the sun is bright and makes me squint if I try to focus on the pages. I don't want wrinkles.  Also, it is ALWAYS windy and I have a hard time staying on the page I'm trying to read.  Plus, your book gets dirty.  If given the choice, I read inside.  However, I will read outside if I want to read and it is my only option.  If I just want to be outside, I'm going to do something other than read.

That said, I like to read by pools (any pool), but I mostly read a few pages and then nap in the warm sun.  I have been on a quest for about a year and a half to find a pool in Virginia to read next to, though.  So I don't see any outdoor reading in my future any time soon.

  2. I don't read outside either! Though when I do go to the pool (which is rarely), I love bringing a book! Hope you have a great Friday :)

  3. I squint anyway, don't know why. I do it when I'm focused.

    1. Just none that I have to go to... for free. None of my friends have their own. Technically there are a few at my gym, but they are indoors, so they don't count. I'm about an hour south of DC.

  7. Sunglasses are a must for outside reading. But mostly I sit in the shade to read.
