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

Albion falls

What a fun place to hang out for the day! Recently one of my friends let me know that she’s never hiked in Hamilton. So Hamilton being so well known as the Waterfall Capital of the world, I figured we had to go to one of it’s popular waterfalls. The hike didn’t disappoint! Although we… Continue reading Albion falls

Murphy’s Law

It’s always good to be prepared. Not necessarily prepared for what could go wrong, but prepared to change your plans. Ever have a trip where everything that can go wrong does? This last trip just didn’t seem to want to happen. It started with the day before the trip when I came down with a… Continue reading Murphy’s Law

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! 

Hike to Apps’ Mill

I woke up today feeling lazy. I could see that it was a beautiful day outside, but I couldn’t get my bum moving out the door. I was chatting with a good friend of mine talking about how nice out it finally is, but that I was so unmotivated… she said: I know I always… Continue reading Hike to Apps’ Mill

Duck… duck… ?

I love ducks! I’ve been tinkering with a different camera lately. It’s been pretty interesting figuring it all out. (For the most part I think I’m just figuring out how to fix the mistakes, but who’s counting!?) I had a very quick stop the other day at Churchill Park in Cambridge and thought I’d share… Continue reading Duck… duck… ?

Dam cold day to go outside! 

I knew it was going to be a cold one. But I’ve been cooped up way too long. Lots of issues with my back lately, but as we all know, a little fresh air tends to make everything better.  I didn’t really intend to, but I wound up visiting a few local dams along the… Continue reading Dam cold day to go outside!
