Get yourself unstuck

It still reamins a very quiet uneventful summer around these parts. Such is life when you have to recover from injury. The other day a friend and I again decided that paddling season isn’t over yet,(is it ever really over?) So we busted out the boats and decided to get the geocaches in the Mountsberg… Continue reading Get yourself unstuck

Getting ready!

A while back I bought a second hand canoe from a friend. I was thinking of getting a nice lightweight one, but the budget just isn’t allowing that right now. So here I am with this new-to-me canoe! A friend had asked me if I had checked yet to see if it floats. Of course… Continue reading Getting ready!

Geocaching fail

After waiting months to come out of my long winter hibernation, it seemed fitting to snag some geocaches to have a nice excuse to get out on the trails again. I haven’t been keeping up with geocaching about as much as I haven’t been keeping up with blogging. I’m just too big a fan of… Continue reading Geocaching fail

Wolf Lake

It’s been a relatively quiet summer; at least as far as any writing goes. I’ve been enjoying tagging along to help hide some paddles for the Paddle in the Park Contest. It’s been a blast! But obviously I haven’t been able to share any info about any trips until after the paddles were found. This… Continue reading Wolf Lake

Singing in the rain

We had a ton of rain last week! I know that’s kind of dreary for a lot of folks out there but one of my friends had a fabulous idea. Since I’ve been taking a photography class to figure out how to take better pictures it was awesome to go out and take a nice… Continue reading Singing in the rain

Geocaching! 

I’ve been meaning to talk about geocaching for ages now. I credit geocaching for getting me outdoors so much in the first place. I’d always enjoyed hiking, but I think I just needed something else. I’d seen a lot of trails, but trails just don’t get me out of bed and out the door. That’s… Continue reading Geocaching! 

Challenges and benefits

I’ve been having fun lately tinkering with videos.  I’m not really sure what people like… Videos?  Pictures?  Text?  I’m just going with what I like doing, and I’m hoping that it’s helpful somehow.  I plan on doing my thing regardless, being authentic and whatnot; but I always welcome feedback 😊 (and questions! I’m working on… Continue reading Challenges and benefits

Hike to the Crack

I think this post may just be all about the pictures. In my last post I decided to do something different and I featured each campsite I stayed on in a video. The hike to the Crack was so pretty, I’m not sure pictures or a video would do it justice. And besides, it was… Continue reading Hike to the Crack

My favorite places to hike

I was asked the other day if I knew of any good hiking spots around here.  When I replied saying that I would put together a list I had a few messages from people asking if I would share that. So I figured why not publish it here?  These are absolutely in no particular order.… Continue reading My favorite places to hike
