Okanagan Valley, near Summerland, BC.

I’m guilty of wanting to travel to distant and exotic places, but good god does Canada have some of the nicest land on the globe.

Winter sunsets. Nothing quite like them.

Two days of above freezing temperatures and I’ve already inventoried my camping gear for the summer.

Great Sand Dunes. I'm thankful to work where I do and to be sent around for training. Whenever I'm sent out I always make a vacation of it. I just hope I can bring my family here someday soon.

Why Bluesky is better for my mental health:

I still think the world is going to shit, but here I don't have a bunch of racists and bigots in my mentions telling me why it's getting better.

Mount St. Ignace. My dad, now in his 70's, still makes this trip once yearly. 6 hours in and out. From the shore of lake Superior to the highest point on the big lake. One of my favourite hikes. Challenging, frustrating, beautiful and rewarding.

Pack ice. It's the time of year on the North shore where our bays open to the south freeze only to get broken on the next windy day.

Summer sunset over Gurney Lake. I found this spot panning through Google Earth, saw there was good road access, so we went. Great camp site, and a short paddle to get there.

Alberta backroads. Can't remember where this is. Only that it's somewhere south of Medicine Hat.

Moonrise at sunset. From a kayak trip a few years back.

Sunrise reflections. Light of the day overtaking the dark of the night.

Riomaggiore, SP, Italy. The view from our window never got old.

Natural and artificial lighting. The Auroras vs the crazy amount of lighting on the Nipigon river bridge. I love living where I live. This is honestly less than 2 minutes from my door.

Mount St. Ignace, Lake Superior, Canada.

The top of St. Ignace Island. A challenging boat access only hike up 6+ hour in and out trail that is not often maintained and difficult to follow in spots. The views of Lake Superior from up here are incredible.
