I haven't been getting out exploring as much, but on the 5th I took the kids to the Polly's Cove trail.
We headed east towards Barbara Basin, but the trail was a little too rough for the youngests legs, so we found a good spot for our snack north of …
For Canada Day we went on an adventure to Taylor Head Provincial Park. I had a plan to do the full loop, but when we go there moderate from AllTrails was a bit harder/muddier than I expected. And for 4km for my hiking partner, through a lot of muddy …
First a short rant.
I think we need to talk about AllTrails. It sucks.
AllTrails Suck!
The last few times that I have set out with a 5yo for an adventure we had to change our plans, on the fly, because the place that the app was sending us had …
On friday I checked the weather for the weekend while I was sipping my coffee, it called for rain, 100% chance all day Saturday and Sunday, so I planning on errands, movies and baking.

There are a few that I liked, and most of them are at 400mm.
It's definitely not the sharpest lens, and the autofocus motors had a hard time …
During a recent trip down Purcells Cove Road I noticed a parking lot that I didn't notice before across from the RNSYS. I didn't have time to check it out then, but then it was a couple days after the start of "spring" and I wanted to get out of …
Last week we stopped short and wandered around the Heritage Park portion of the Cole Harbour Parks and Trails System. I'm glad we did, because today was a much warmer day to go out in the middle of the marsh.
We didn't go far this trip, we didn't have a …
Nothing much to add to this post, I took the toddler for a car nap and while she slept I took a couple pictures of seagulls from the car while reviewing drawings on my tablet.
Exciting times.
