Alluring Adventure croons her sweet siren song

sensational scenarios, adrenaline addictions, mesmerising memories.

Feeling too tired to adventure today?
Snuggle down, down, deep into the depths of your bed clothes
Gently close your heavy eyelids… inhale… e x h a l e …
Catch a ride on the Magic Carpet of your dreams.
*
An accommodating Lady Adventure
tailors, tucks and turns
each exciting experience
‘Til it fits perfectly, just for you.
*
Sunny seaside swim and surf
Muddy mountain energetic hike
Wandering, wending your way through quaint cottage gardens
Wherever the Magic Carpet lands, embrace Lady Adventure.
*
Whether white waves froth and churn their salty spa
Or a Cardio workout with sweat dripping down
Or air is pierced by Willy Wagtails trilling
Life links hands with Lady Adventure…
*
Rejoice!

"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.

What a wonderful personification of adventure! She sounds like quite the fun companion!!
This piece really captures the allure of adventure. It makes me think of the times I've been too tired to go out and explore, but then just let my imagination take me on those dreamy adventures. You've painted a vivid picture of different adventures, like the seaside swim and mountain hike. How do you think one can stay connected to this sense of adventure in daily life?
