  • Warbler Woods Visual Tour

    Are you ready for a visual tour of Warbler Woods? Good, because I laced up my running shoes, grabbed my camera, and got out for a nice trail run. Entrances to nature trails often have a tight fence like this one. They are meant to stop dirt bikes, ATVs, and snowmobiles from tearing up the…


  • Meadowlilly Woods Visual Tour

    Meadowlily Woods is only one of several natural jewels that exists in what is known as The Forest City, London, Ontario. I hit the trails this past weekend for a run and took my camera along to share the beautiful views with all of you. I hope you enjoy this visual tour of my run.…


  • Springbank Park – Terry Fox Parkway

    Springbank Park is absolutely gorgeous. It is located along the bank of the Thames River in London, Ontario. There are landscaped gardens, playgrounds, a small theme park, and over 30 kilometres of trails. A lot of weddings are held at the Civic Garden Complex. In fact, one was taking place just as I started my…


  • Carolinian Trail – Pinery Provincial Park

    Pinery Provincial Park is simply breathtaking. It is located on the shore of Lake Huron just south of Grand Bend. “The Oak Savanna and Freshwater Coastal Dune ecosystems which make up the park are extremely rare and fragile and are home to many equally rare or endangered plants, animals, and insects.” I really should have…


  • Green Army Men Skateboard

    I don’t reblog often. Instead I usually share cool images that I find online using Twitpic. However, I really wanted to share this image with all of you. A green army dude figure is doing a kickflip with his flat plastic base. That is just golden there. Much props to the artist. I so want this t-shirt.…

The pond is fed by the streams of the Dorchester Swamp and agricultural land drainage.  The Mill Pond Trail provides 3.5 km of walkways through a variety of natural habitats around the pond.”…


  • Wicked Skatepark – Wicked Wipeout!

    It’s a good thing it’s summer holidays and I don’t have to go into a classroom tomorrow morning. If it were a school day, I would have wobbled in awkwardly.  The students would have all asked, “What happened?” and I’d end up sharing another skateboard injury story. But I thought I’d share the story with…


  • Visual Running Tours

    I love finding new places to run. I often take my camera along with me and stop every few minutes to snap a picture. This way I can present you with a photographic story that captures the scenery of my run. This post will serve as a table of contents page for these Visual Running…


  • Visual Tour Clark Wright C.A.

    I love finding new places to go for a trail run. It’s fun to bring my camera along with me to present these Visual Tours as well. I’ve been running for months already this year but I have been hitting the same trails I shared with you already. That was until early this week when…


  • Skateboarding to Garage Sales

    First thing Saturday morning, I grabbed my skateboard and rushed out the door. I was going out a bit late. It was 8:30 a.m. but I knew it would still be early enough to find some deals. It was the annual community-wide garage sale event. It’s always a great day because there are quite a…
