Do you like to walk alone or with others?

We live on acreage so I'm fortunate to be able to take walks often. Just need to walk out our door. My mind tends to wander. Sometimes I will take a walk purposely to go round & round in my head something I'm trying to figure out. Other times it's to vent. My dog is a good listener & she keeps me company. I sometimes take walks with my husband. But for the most part, I take a good 2 to 3 walks a day with our dog. I also have our state's field guides for trees, butterflies, birds & I challenge myself to identify what I see out there.
 
If it is daytime, I don't mind going around the corner by myself. When it comes to going long distances though, I want someone to come with me.
If it is dark outside, I want someone to come with me around the corner as I don't like being out by myself at night.
