Trip to Ontario

From May 22 to June 17 we travelled 9ooo kms. Our trip to Ontario was a great time of blessing in so many ways.
Paul took a course (one of the last six to finish his Masters) at Heritage, we attended the AGC National conference, we stayed with our kids, and visited with family, and we paddled.
This picture was taken on the Barron River in the east side of Algonquin Park. The canyon was beautiful! Why did we never paddle this canyon when we LIVED in Ontario?
A highlight of the trip was meeting Jay Morrison at the Sportsman Inn in Killarney. He is paddling his decked canoe across Canada. He was an excellent story teller and he gave me some advice about dealing with the media, and how to train for the long haul.
I did some walking while away but with having to put on so many kilometers any travel day was a full one. So when we got home we started walking an hour a day again.
Something strange is happening though. I never ever once thought that I would run, but I have begun to add short parts of running in my hour walk. This really gets the heart beat up and also adds a bit of interesting variation.
I have also applied for two jobs. Neither have contacted me so I am waiting and trying not to give in to the negative messages that play in my little mind.
Remember as long as you have the paddle in the water you are creating stability - its a simple step.
