Do I have any #ParkChat friends who (1) live in CA and (2) were part of the DOGE federal work force reductions that might want to speak at an upcoming event with a large audience of decision makers? If so, reach out!

Thank you! I am very much looking forward to the warmth again.

Signs of spring. Rain and puddles sure but also the skunk cabbage coming up quickly.

The fact the candidate everyone isn’t talking about is Conservative candidate, Andrew Lawton, is SHAMEFUL. This piece of filth has DECADE of bigotry, sexism, homophobia, on record. Not one bad day. Why isn’t Poilievre being asked to remove him, like when he ran for Ford a few years ago?

Leave out milk, bread, and honey and you'll have less housework to do: the brownie is a Scottish spirit that at night will tidy up the home a bit if given offerings. If ignored or offended, they become boggarts, so be kind. #FolkloreSunday 🖼: T. DiTerlizzi

A depiction of brownies from Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black's Spiderwick Chronicles, showing a small fey creature in green britches and a white shirt with a thimble hat and a duster made of a badminton shuttlecock. Words explain how to keep them happy but are too small to read, but are observations made by Arthur Spiderwick, who is chronicling the fey in his home because he can see them.

Please watch my statement on Trump's attempt to extort Canada. The stakes are high but much higher in the United State as Donald Trump leaves the USA weaker economically and politically. This is how the great American century ends - like a toxic sideshow. #elbowsup www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Uso...

beckoning wonder land

A path of mystery dark stream flows and leads from underfoot through snow-heavy shrubs into a forest deep and tall with slender trunks and endless snow-adorned branching cascades in the day’s grey light.

A group of snowshoers (and a dog!) seen today on hike 9 of my #52hikechallenge - a 2.9k snowshoe. Another beautiful day to get outside!

That’s so awesome. What a good dad! We had a lake behind our childhood house and my dad used to light a bonfire in this old drum and we too would skate for hours. Good memories.

Today is National Flag Day in Canada and I think I spent it in a fitting way - skating on an outdoor trail on top of Blue Mountain 🇨🇦 I haven’t been skating in 2 years so I had a big grin a lot of the time. And while this wasn’t hiking, I’m counting it as “hike” 8 of the #52hikechallenge.

I thought it was very nice too Carl! I imagine it helps lots of people.

Have you ever heard of a wind phone? It’s a phone without a dial tone installed on a nature trail. You use to connect with a deceased love one. This wind phone is at the Ausable River Cut Conservation Area just outside of Port Franks, Ontario. I think it’s a beautiful idea.

Yes! I love this weather - cold but sunny. Much better than winter rain for me.

Between shopping and sushi got in a short but beautiful 3.3k hike on the Grand Valley Trail. A crisp but sunny day for hike 6 of the #52hikechallenge. ☃️☀️

winter landscape featuring a snow-covered trail leading to a wooden bridge. The bright sun shines in a clear blue sky, casting long shadows on the snow. A frozen body of water stretches into the distance, surrounded by leafless trees. Two people in dark winter clothing are seen walking near the edge of the ice.

It was! It wasn’t slippery thankfully but had to take it slowly but surely nonetheless.

I love how hiking forces your mind to focus on the present. On this trail, step after sideways step down the hill. #hiking

Sunset walk to film my next episode of #grimwood. Crisp and cold at -13C/8F. Weather that makes you feel alive!

Cute signs! I love how some forest managers try to add a little "cute & funny" to our day. Here's one from The Pioneer Trail in The Jennings State Forest. (FL) 😁
