3 stage with Cait

Goose, Bash, CoachID and I had a lovely day on the Beaver River.

Great conversations with Goose as we paddled together. Very grateful for all that I learned in that short time together - he is a paddling extraordinaire!

Ended the paddle with butter tarts.. or should I say, started the run with butter tarts?

Stuck with what I knew and took the gang up Old Mail Road to connect with the BT and then a pretty little side trail that connected us back to the cars via Sideroad 22.

Happy to play tour guide for the day and not sure what I was so nervous for?!

Sorry about missing the skirt memo - I could have totally rocked the denim today.

Quick visit to Manitoulin for family and fireworks so naturally, a Lion's Head loop was in order - started at McCurdy Drive. Plan wasn't to run the full loop but I took a wrong turn and ended up down Cemetary Road. Not the worst thing that could happen since weather was perfect! Detoured along Warder and Ilse Hanel side trails and eventually to the look out. Suuuuper slick but I got away with one! Total distance was somewhere between 16-18.5km

Sunshine Alley near Whitefish Falls. My uncle had 2 sea kayaks so I went out with him. Always wanted to check out Dreamer's Rock...so mythical and beautiful.

Very balmy on the water and we're getting some crazy t-storms on the island - hoping the girls in Killarney are toughing out the harsh conditions!
