May 29 ~ Race Weekend in Ottawa

50,000 runners took part in the annual Race Weekend.
At Saturday night's 10 km, I bumped into my swimming buddy, William, cheering on the 14,000 10km runners! 
INCLUDING MEGAN!
Notice the man with the hose - it was 30 degrees!

May 19 ~ All that's left.

These seven,  meter-wide stumps are all that is left of seven magnificent trees at Mooney's Hill Park. Apparently the space is 'needed' to construct Canada's Largest Playground. This, all done without any public consultation or publicity! SHAME!

May 12 ~ West Coast Trail Reunion

Eleven years ago, we five adventurers hiked the West Coast trail, on Vancouver Island. Life got busy for us all, so last night we had a reunion! So great to be together again!
