Yes - i use to enjoy the trips dad and i made "quality time" even had my mother sitting in the ute a week before she died, on a night fishing trip...she said she only came to find out after all these years what keep men out all hours on the beach- she died with the answer - she didn't want to leave that night. And of course solitude, some time by yourself...which if i don't get a move on i will miss out today!
