    I love getting out into the forest on my cross country skis. It's so quiet when the snow is falling...nothing compares!

    Thunderstorms

    by KC, almost 2 years ago

    At my house we always look forward to summer thunderstorms. We have a tradition of sitting under the covered porch to listen to the thunder and rain, and watch the lightning streak across the sky. It's nature's most exciting show!

    Swimming in Lake Simcoe!

    Swimming in Lake Simcoe is one our favorite things to do in the summer! So many great, small (and big), private (and public) beaches around us! So lucky to be living in Simcoe :)

    Centred in Spring

    by Mich Y, almost 2 years ago

    The smell of lilacs and freshly cut grass are a couple of my favourites. The start of a new season brings hope and sitting by the lake with a cool breeze and calm waters lapping at the shore helps me be more present and centred.

    Spring clouds and flowers...

    by G Repeat, almost 2 years ago

    Light and clouds are my favourite artists and then along comes the spring flowers to make it even better. Time to go paddling and feed the bugs.

    Cycling and Birdsong

    by laurenm, almost 2 years ago

    I'm always so delighted with the first rides in the watershed on my road bike in the spring. It's sweet to hear the songs of meadowlarks, eastern phoebes, and many other birds while feeling the warm sun on my skin as I ride through the countryside.

    Spring Flowers

    by KF, almost 2 years ago

    For me the biggest sign of spring is flowers! I love to see the early spring ephemerals that come out before there are even leaves on the trees--a sure sign that winter is over! Here is a picture of some bloodroot and trout lilies in Newmarket.
