New Brunswick in the winter is about as white as you can get. There's always snow, snow, snow everywhere you look. Needless to say, that's why we love our skiing and snowmobiling. But this winter we decided to venture out for a "tougher" activity. We're going to do a little snowshoeing this winter. Oh come on guys! Wait up! You ...
Sometimes when I'm feeling down, I find going for a walk helps connect me back to nature. There's a special spot I like to go where I can walk down a quiet path with beautiful, tall trees all around. My favorite part of my walk is being able to watch the setting sun through a framework of trees. It isn't ...
Wherever you go in the big city there are always signs telling you to turn right, slow down, walk, yield, stop, etc. When we went out into the country this winter, I wasn't exactly expecting to see any signs. At first I thought it must be a leftover sign from a city that used to be there. Then I figured ...
Snow, snow everywhere, but which way shall we go. Signs point left and right, each way leads through the blinding snow. No footprints show the traveled path, nor evidence left to lead the way. The snow fell long and hard last night and ice formed at the break of day. But as the sun begins to rise, it brightens up ...
Don't try and intimidate us. The sun coming up is going to have absolutely no effect on our decision. Even though we are snowmen, we would rather melt than give up our "Arrested Development". Trust us, there are certain things we simply won't give up and that's one of them. You can threaten us with a warm sunny day, throw ...
As far as the weather goes, it looks like it's going to be a hare warmer today than yesterday. Just a hare though. I guess you could say my methods are kind of like Punxsutawney Phil's, who lets us know whether we are in for 6 more weeks of winter or whether spring is on its way. Thankfully my method ...
Some days you just have to seize the moment, no matter what the weather is like. In New Brunswick, pretty much every winter day is like that. If you don't make the most of the day, you're bound to regret it. Besides skiing or snowboarding, jumping on a snowmobile and heading through the woods is one of the best snow ...
Sometimes when I look out my window on a cold winter's day, I almost don't recognize the landscape outside. It makes me think I've woken up in a whole new world. Ice and snow all around and many of the "usual" landmarks are completely hidden from view. I know the temperatures outside are well below freezing and am very thankful ...
During the Winter, there are few things more appealing than a relaxing lounge chair on a warm beach somewhere. When I think of places to go, one place stands out...Montorosso Beach. Located in Cinque Terre, Italy, you can almost hear the beach calling you, beaconing you to join it for some fun in the sun Italian style. The brightly colored ...
One thing I look forward to every year is being able to enjoy a walk through Central Park after a Winter's storm. There are only a few of us who are brave enough to face the elements. But let me tell you, it's 100% worth it. Thankfully my dog loves it as much as I do. The untouched, fallen snow ...
Nature has a way of growing, changing, and adapting to the world around it. Even when one tree dies, somewhere, another tree is ready to ...
Although some people may see the adventure in it, we don't recommend it. Even the caution signs around town warn against it. We understand that ...
Mother Nature's beauty can be seen all around you. All you need to do is open your eyes and you'll be able to see the ...
Hey look mom! I can see our house from here! Come on mom, it's not scary. It's only 53 feet off the ground, or was ...
