School’s Out for Summer

This trip was a little different for us.  This trip the boys got a head start on celebrating the last day of school along with the first day of summer. Friday was a PA day here, which means Hayden is home from school, but I am still required to be at work.  That gave way for plans on having my boys get a night out on their own, and I would join them after work on Friday.

Women on Water Festival 2018 – Part 1

This year I attended the Women on Water Festival that is hosted by Wild Women Expeditions and the Ontario Sea Kayak Center.  This event sells out every year, so when I got the news that I was able to solidify a last minute cancellation I was elated.  I have heard lots about this festival recently from my friend Christina, and I knew that I would enjoy it.  With only a few days to pack and gather my items, I was one busy lady.  The festival runs from Friday evening into Sunday afternoon.  That means I had to leave right after work to make my 4+ hour drive to Parry Sound.

In the back of my mind I was hoping to get out one more time, at that point I would do the final wash before storing the canoe. Time passed and the opportunities to get out was slipping through my fingers.
