Guided by the light of a silvery moon and the soun Guided by the light of a silvery moon and the sound of waves lapping at the shore we finally made it to our destination last night. If the stars align we’ll be sleeping in Québec tonight! #moonlight #moonoverthelake #lakeontario #wemadeit #folksblogen #athomeinourhymer #hymer #vantravel @christianmunozmorrison
It’s Groundhog Day! Five hours later and we’re It’s Groundhog Day! Five hours later and we’re right back where we started. Better add C’s wallet to our checklist next time. Here we go again… #groundhogday #backwherewestarted #ontheroadagainagain #folksblogen

We’re collectors. Rocks, shells, feathers, drift We’re collectors. Rocks, shells, feathers, driftwood, etc. And we have a tendency to zoomorphize objects such as rocks. Do you see what we see? #collectors #rockcollector #zoomorphize #weloverocks #wecollectwhereeverwego
Good news friends: today, as non residents of Atla Good news friends: today, as non residents of Atlantic Canada, we applied for a PEI Pass and received approval from the province almost immediately. That means we can travel to PEI as soon as July 18th. AND, because we’ve both received two doses of the Pfizer Vaccine we don’t have to quarantine upon arrival. We do have to receive a Covid test before travelling across the Confederation Bridge. This is excellent news for anyone from outside of Atlantic Canada wishing to travel to the Magdalens Islands too! And IF you’re planning a trip to one of our favourite places, #lesilesdelamadeleine, don’t forget to buy a copy of our guide @goodguides.ca (link in our bio or www.good guides.ca) 😉❤️ #peipass #pei #confederationbridge #magdalenislands #canada #covid_19 #vaccinepassport
We just noticed that Boblo Island, the gated commu We just noticed that Boblo Island, the gated community located in the Detroit River opposite Amherstburg was rebranded, Bois Blanc. The island was originally called Etiowiteendannenti, a Huron word meaning, a peopled island of white woods guarding the entrance. The French Missionaries who sought to convert the Huron people to Catholicism and erase their native language, customs and traditions translated it to French and renamed the island, Bois Blanc, around 1728. Then the British followed suit and bastardized that translation, calling it Bob-Lo. The first private owner of the island, Colonel Arthur Rankin bought it from the Government for $40 in the mid 1800s. In 1993 the island was bought by a developer. And now, an island taken from the Huron et al boasts a gated community with some homes priced so high they are not attainable by the average person. #bobloisland #boisblanc #etiowiteendannenti #huron #huronwendat #wyandot #odawa #potawatomi #iroquois #3firesconfederacy #territoriallands #firstnations #canada #frenchmissionaries #colonization #settlers #1492windsorlandcoalition #caldwellfirstnation
Covid restrictions limited our wanderings and ensu Covid restrictions limited our wanderings and ensured our explorations were deep rather than wide this past year and a half. This week we prepared the van for travel. We visited with our family in other regions of Ontario for the first time in seven months. We hiked varied terrain and inhaled deeply, marvelling at scents we haven’t enjoyed in way too long. You can bet those three days fuelled our wanderlust. Let the planning and preparations begin!!! #readytogo #folksarereadytoexplore #folksblogen #rockwoodconservationarea #guelph #ontario #eramosarivertrail #dewinterizedandready #athomeinourhymer
We.are.on.the.road!!!! First time leaving the coun We.are.on.the.road!!!! First time leaving the county since November! I am on the verge of tears (Julie). Happy ones, of course. This is just a quick, jam-packed trip built around regular maintenance but happlily includes seeing family we haven’t seen in as many months. Feels so good already. #ontheroadagain #shorttrip #moretocome #athomeinourhymer #leavingyqg
This is our favourite kind of Saturday. Our first This is our favourite kind of Saturday. Our first stop was at the local Farmer’s Market where we bought our favourite greens from @morning.moon.farms , enjoyed a cup of coffee from @acornandoakcoffee at a picnic table with our friends Nancy and Frank. Then returned home for a delicious lunch from @thecheesebar.ca gifted to us by our friends Margaret and Gwill. We tested our just made strawberry rhubarb popsicles. Duff maybe loves them even more than we do! And then we made cucumber elderflower tequila popsicles for tomorrow. And it’s only 2 o’clock! Happy Saturday friends! #saturday #farmersmarket #amherstburg #yqg #popsiclemakers #momandpopsicles #localfood #localproduce
