After completing my 4 day solo in Algonquin just two weeks before and spending Labor Day with my friend Sue in Haliburton for her 40th birthday, I knew I should take the weekend off to rest and get some things done at home, but I didn't want to. You see, I am addicted to camping and being outside and exploring new places and I just can't seem to stop, even when I know I should [...]

I find it absolutely amazing how much adventure I can pack into a short trip, this one, being only 18 hours from put in to take out. As some of you may know, I recently purchased a house in Muskoka, after over 2 years of looking, and have been doing renovations on it for a few weeks now. There is a lot left to do, but summer is also here, I've missed 5 months of [...]

On July 8th, I moved into a new house and finally saw my belongings after having them in storage for over 2 years. Moving to Muskoka is something I do not, and don't think I ever will, regret, but it has had it's challenges for sure. All of them worth it, in my opinion, but that doesn't make them non existent. It has been a long road. After moving all of my things on Sunday, [...]

Last year, I had the privilege of being invited to shadow the kayaking courses at the Women on Water Paddling Festival. It was great fun and I learned so much. When I was asked to come back again this year, to teach basic kayaking, I agreed wholeheartedly and couldn't wait for the event to arrive. I left off in Part 1 with the sun setting on Saturday. This post begins on Sunday with a whole [...]

It has been a very long time since I paddled and I had been anxious to get out, but the ice wasn't cooperating or getting off the lakes. It seemed like forever and finally, the first Wednesday in May, the ice went out in Muskoka. I was so happy and my mind began doing that thing it does, planning an adventure and figuring out the where, when, how, etc. Last year I visited Wye Marsh [...]

It was Sunday, February 25, Day Two of the Outdoor Adventure Show for me! I woke up feeling very tired and already having a slight headache, I wasn’t quite sure if I should just head home, or head back to the show? After getting up and getting ready, putting some peppermint oil on underneath my Lure buff, a.k.a. today's head bandage, I decided I would be good for a few hours. I was very excited to [...]

My first year attending was in 2016 with my mom, and last year was my second year attending. It was last year that I said to myself, next year, I will be presenting here. So, this year was extremely special to me [...]
