Down by the creek is definitely my favourite. We live on six acres, bounded by the Pumpenbil creek which runs strong all year. I've got a platform right on the creek bank with just enough room for a chair or two.
I get the delight of occasionally seeing a platypus while playing but mostly it's the serenity and escape from technology that I enjoy.
When I play at the house, it's easy to get distracted by the kettle (yet another cup of tea...), the internet, facebook, you name it. When I play for an hour or so in the house it's probably only 30 or 40 minutes of actual play time.
At the creek, it's all play time. And time just seems to flow down there. Life is good at the creek.
