New Hike: Dumfries Conservation Area
|
On our way home from my parents’ house, we got off the 401 to satisfy a coffee craving and ended up hiking our way through Dumfries Conservation Area. Rob had passed by this park many times but had never had a chance to stop and enjoy a stroll on through.
Right in the middle of
Cambridge
,
Dumfries
was originally a piece of land that was donated to the Queen but to be maintained for the benefit of the local public. The Grand River Conservation assumed responsibility
|
 |
| for the land about 30 years ago with permission for the donator, Mr. P.R. Hilborn. |

New Travel Log: #10 Winter Camping in Algonquin Park
|
Our last winter camping experience in Algonquin was in a yurt—comfy, warm and dry. As promised to ourselves, we planned out yet another winter camping trip but this time we opted for trying out our tent with what we hoped would be the same results—comfy, warm and dry.

10 things to do in May
Ok, we are a little light on 10 things... Got a suggestion?
|
|
1) Apparently we have our own magnetic hill. Check it out here.
|
|
2) Cycling wine tour of Niagara region.
|
|
|
|
3)Shoot some Moose in Algonquin Park. HW 60 is a great place to shoot some moose (photographically of course) during spring. All the salt that was put on the road all winter has been washed into the local marshes, and moose absolutely love eating it! |
|
4) Go check out the Haliburton Forest Wolf Centre. (After the 24th). The pups seem to all be born in early May, so you might get a chance to see them!
|
|
|
|
5) Doors Open
Toronto
~ May 23 and 24
Strap on those comfy walking shoes and hop on the Doors Open Toronto circuit. This is your chance to see inside the most incredible and oldest buildings across
Toronto
.
