Louisa Rogers with her husband, right, and one of their friends.
Louisa Rogers and her husband Barry, right, enjoy hanging out with friends together.

Last week, my friend Robbie and I cycled along a bike path for about three miles, then locked our bikes and walked through brush to a small beach. No one was around, so I had a nude dip, and afterward, we sat on a rock and talked.

Robbie is my only bicycling friend, and soon we'll be cycling even more, because we both recently acquired spiffy new electric bikes. I got to know her through another friend whom I met on a retreat. Getting "out there" and circulating is one way I make friends.
