The importance of protecting my time on the land is weighing heavy on me today.

What is one activity/task you refuse to drop from your schedule?

Running in the forest 🌲

Summer forest runs are glorious!

So are the winter ones 🄶

Try to preserve time to exercise and reflect everyday. Helps clear my head and be more present. It’s great that you are proactively identifying what’s important! And GM!

GM Booms! What’s your go to exercise to clear your head?

Lifting free weights, jogging, walking are best for reflection. I do enjoy team sports too for fun but that doesn’t really provide the space for clearing head

Team sports never did it for me. Give me a contact sport or put me in the woods. Now I CrossFit just to be a better hiker.

I hear that, CrossFit is tough but that explains your epic hikes!

Right?! It has done wonders for my hiking. What use to feel like a trek is a meander now.

manual labour lol

I’m actually with you on this one. Lugging > organized sports.

I too won’t drop my daily ā€˜hike’.

It’s only a short 30 min trail behind my house.

Been a slave to my basement reno’s lately, so as soon as I see the sun, Im out!

Try to get out twice, morning/afternoon and before dinner.

Oh that actually sounds really lovely. I have a few walking trails that love revisiting regularly. There’s something more ritualistic about it.

I know every step. It allows me to get out of my current head space. My form of meditation.

I used to be more adventurous around my area. But since my puppers passed Ive been pretty routine out back.

I really enjoy your doggo pic’s in nature.

I bet your pupper had an amazing life. I know I’d be less motivated without lucie. Time to get back on the trails friend!

She went with me everywhere. Traveled coast to coast in Canada twice with me. Been more places than most people šŸ˜Ž.

I fed her mostly carnivore and she lived passed her18th year. She was a Collie/Shepard mix about the same size as your puppers.

I will. When my reno’s are done, I’m out. Thinking mid west through the mountains. Looked at the Continental Divide Trail last night.

Any recommendations?

Oh I will definitely list some west coast dream trails for you - let me spend a minute on it!

Now remember you haven’t been coast to coast without visiting NL….

I have not been to Newfie Land.

It was on the itinerary when we visited the east coast. But our time wasn’t very structured and the time on the fairy would’ve ate to much time.

A direct flight to the island seemed more appropriate next trip.

Definitely. The west coast of NL is the best part of Canada in my humble opinion. I know you’re a hunt/fish fella - it’s unbeatable.

šŸ¤” you’re making me reconsider my destination.

Will watch for sure tonight!

Thanks for sharing šŸ‘Š

You know, i never really looked at Newfoundland very closely. It is beautiful. And damn. The real estate is cheap šŸ‘€

It’s pretty grand!!

I imagine most the island is pretty similar weather wise. How does it compare to the Muskoka’s seasons. Do you get mosquitoes lol

How long does it take to drive around Newfoundland

Lmao. I meant to type that into google

The island is VASTLY different in climate from side to side. It’s a 9.5 hour end to end. Mosquitos? We’ve got em. Worse inland, but I wear a net at least a few times in the summer.

I spent probably 2 hours asking ai about Newfoundland and looking up home sales. I’m becoming fascinated with the place.

I’m not happy in Ontario. Haven’t been for years šŸ¤·šŸ¼

Yessss, come to the island. What I talk to people from Ontario I say less people, equally bad access to services, all the nature you want.

I’m super interested in which AI you were using - help a girl out!

I used deep see. But i guess the app only allows a few questions before promoting to purchase.

So i went back to chat gpt and its a lot better.

I didn’t realize the island was so big.

I’m definitely looking to make a move soon. So I’ll definitely visit to check out.

One thing i couldn’t get a clear answer on is the price of consumables. The real estate is cheap. But I imagine the groceries are not

Everything comes by boat and plane. Be prepared to pay a bit more, and be disappointed with yo7r produce. šŸ˜†

I figured as much.

With the seasons being more random i imagine gardening can be a challenge without a greenhouse

Depends on the area, but I use cold frames and a greenhouse to extend the season.

Where theres. Will theres a way.

Well I’ll be Definitely checking your homeland out someday.

Yesss! Plan for it!

Muskoka you say?

Ya man. Ish. More northern tho.
