A little midday snowshoeing never hurt anyone…
“Why don’t you ever take photos of your dog?” said NO ONE to me EVER.
Scully is losing weight and gaining a healthy appreciation of the local trails Mr. Fletcher enjoyed so well.
Always followed with a nice post-hike nap (of course!).
There’s a lovely non-profit working farm and educational center just outside Keene, NH called Stonewall Farm. Scully needed a morning hike, and I knew just the place…
Located on Medicine Mountain, the Medicine Wheel is one of North America’s most well preserved Native American sacred places.
It’s at least 250 years old. Even today, the site is sacred to many different tribes across the US.
Offerings tied to the rope fence or left within the wheel are from those who have made the pilgrimage to the site. Ceremonies still take place here regularly.
I was accompanied by crows during my hike out. A few even stopped and talked with me for a while.
High on my list of “Fun Things To Do In Your Own Backyard During A Pandemic” is to visit Eastwood Metropark. You’ll forget you’re anywhere near a city…
I spent an absolutely lovely week camping at Algonquin Park in southeastern Ontario. Canada is so incredibly beautiful and Algonquin is one of Ontario’s many highlights.
While I barely scratched the surface of all that there is to see and do, I did manage to take in a few scenic hikes including: Bat Lake, Lookout Trail, Big Pines Trail, Track & Tower Trail, and I enjoyed a refreshing bike ride from the Lake of Two Rivers down to Whitefish Lake.
I enjoyed a brief visit to Wellesley Island, one of the largest of the Thousand Islands in the St. Lawrence River. Wellesley Island State Park has a fantastic visitor center complete with 8 miles of easy, well-marked trails and a butterfly house!
