Lyme is a strange beast. There’s good days among the bad, but every so often, there’s a REALLY bad day. A day that makes you wonder if you’ll see the next. Do people without Lyme have those? I don’t say what I say for sympathy or attention. I’m too old for that crap. These posts… Continue reading The Reality of Chronic Lyme Disease

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
ORCKA
This past weekend I decided to take my level 3 with ORCKA after seeing that Gayle from Sometimes Eventful posted about the class that she took. I didn’t know that there was a relatively new place teaching ORCKA classes nearby. It all comes naturally. I can’t recommend them enough! I had always wanted to finish… Continue reading ORCKA
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
Grateful
I hadn’t really intended to write anything about Thanksgiving and being grateful. Personally I think you should be grateful about something every single day. However the last week or so I’ve had a very trying week. And it’s been wonderful that even though I haven’t really felt up to getting outside, I’ve got some people… Continue reading Grateful
Canadian Canoe Museum
If you’re ever in the Peterborough area the Canadian Canoe Museum is definitely a little hidden gem! I had the chance to visit the museum to help with another live video for the Paddle in the Park Contest. I’m not really a history buff myself, but I have to admit, it was really, really cool… Continue reading Canadian Canoe Museum
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
