['I had a great time this weekend.', 'Oh yeah? Nice to hear. What exactly did you do?', 'We took a trip to the mountains to hike.  So nice to be away from the city outside in nature.', "That's awesome, I'm from Kansas and first went to Colorado just a couple years ago. It was beautiful!", "That sounds fun.  I haven't been to Colorado yet.  I'd like to go.", 'I agree though, always a good time to get away and explore some nature life.', "It's very relaxing.  There was a lot of people.  More than I expected to see."]
Well I'm pleased to hear you had a fun time. Hope you get to do it again soon.
We went to the mountains to hike.  It was very peaceful and nice to be in nature.
