I enjoyed a lovely lap on the North Head Trail today-it had been too long!I enjoyed both attending and photographing a women’s chain saw workshop yesterday. It was sponsored by the Becoming an Outdoors Woman program. I brought a camera along and it was a challenging activity to capture as I had to avoid getting hit by falling trees, getting oily sawdust on my lens, and trying to capture faces in the midst of folks wearing fairly intensive PPE. I wanted to capture a mini story for each participant about their experience of using a chainsaw. Here’s one of the attendees in action.Proud of HKR 2545/3220 student performance yesterday. 3 degrees, wind to 60 km/h, & rain. We were out practicing their outdoor living & leadership skills & from the smiles-rocking it! Warm, dry, & comfortable in foul weather-that's adventurous learning at its finest! @memorialuniversity @memorialustudentsWe were driving home from teaching outside, looking forward to a hot dinner, and looked over at Long Pond. It was like glass and we both said, “Let’s go paddling.” The pond was three feet higher than yesterday and we shared its glassy surface with muskrats, ducks, and ducklings. A truly peaceful end to a lovely albeit cold and rainy day out. The sun may have even peaked out for a minute or two.When a big view makes you feel small on the outside and big on the inside.The barachois in Freshwater Bay always captures my attention (and provides an invite to pause and look) while on a hike on the @eastcoasttrail #hikenlTA’s Facebook Page

Visual Soliloquy #1276 I wanted a perfect ending. Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity…
