  • Snow Day

    We are in the midst of a snowstorm that is essentially crippling the city. 40 to 70 cm of snow has already fallen in some areas and it does not seem to be letting up. According to the news, another 60 cm will fall by the end of Tuesday. The strange thing is, we seem […]


  • Coldstream Conservation Area (Visual Tour)

    Time for another Visual Running Tour. This time I hit up Coldstream Conservation Area in Ilderton, Ontario. It’s always nice to see a map at the start of a trail. I don’t understand why this is called a beach area. How can you have a beach area when there is no swimming allowed? Is it […]


  • Teaching Tip – Super Doors

    A few years ago, when I was teaching Grade 4, I looked at my classroom door and had an epiphany.  As I stared at the blank and boring door, I thought of a way I could spruce it up with a bit of colour and share my love of comic books at the same time.  The […]


  • Visual Tour of The Dundas Valley Trail

    I love exploring new places to run and bringing my camera along with me for the trek. This time I decided to go to Ancaster and run along parts of the Dundas Valley. I hope you enjoy this visual tour of my trail run.  I started off walking. I was just getting my camera strap adjusted […]


  • 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 […]


  • Doors Open London

    Doors Open London is one of the best weekends of the year. For two days every year, the city throws open its doors so you can see exactly what this city has to offer. You can explore historic sites, tourist attractions, and points of interest absolutely free of charge. Last year, I got to nine […]


  • Just Woke Up (A Picture Story)

    It feels like I just woke up. Like I’ve been asleep since February. I didn’t recognize the darkness because it has speckles of light in it. Something changed recently. I don’t know what exactlybut things are not nearly as dark now. Things are suddenly bright again. Anything seems possible. Isn’t that what life should be?


  • 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 […]


  • Red Hill Valley – The Trail is Still There

    When I was in high school, our cross country team always went to Red Hill Valley to do some nice trail runs. The valley was beautiful and it was a treasure to have this huge green space in the east end of the city. If you hiked off of the main trail, you could walk […]
