Contrary to the name, the Devil’s Oven are actually ice caves. This was quite a find a few years ago and we finally decided to go and visit this year. Luckily these caves were out in Minto, NB which meant that they where only an hour drive away from home. While doing my research around […]
Like how all good or disastrous trips start, Dad went: “Don’t you have a long weekend coming up? I hear it will be sunny”. Which normally means, PLAN A TRIP! We went on the hunt and found something that would be unique and something that we hadn’t done before. After looking around on AirBnb, I […]
As most of you would know, that I am a huge fan of the “Agile” way of life, which I picked up from my software development years. Keeping in tradition for this year’s Retro, its time to reflect and answer the usual questions: What went well? What could be improved? Any Ideas This year ended […]
Its rare that both Elma and I find the same place to “discover”, normally its one convincing the other to make the trip. The Shogomoc Walking Bridge was both on our NB Visit Lists and we did not find that out until Dad said “Well, the sun is shining and sitting indoors is a sin.” […]
The last year in the “new to us” house we made a lot of changes in terms of automations. I think both Elma and I have gotten the house to a level that we both are very happy with and even happier that we were about to share the tricks, code and learnings to our […]
People who know us know, know what avid campers, outdoors and doing stupid s*** kind of people we are. But we’ve always done camping in the confines of a campground, where we knew we had good facilities and not to mention no bears. But I’ve always wanted to do an off-grid camping, where it’s just […]
In all the years Mom and Dad have been to Canada, the one thing they did not experience is proper camping. So we decided to take them to New River Beach for two nights in May. To say this was an experience for Dad and Mom was an understatement, the setup was fun where we […]
At the time of writing this post, I have been living in New Brunswick for almost 20 years. To my amazement I found out that we had a two-third the size replica of Noah’s Arc. Now this I just had to see, so off we went to Bristol, New Brunwick. This was a 1hr drive […]
This May, I finally got to take a “Me” day. So, I took the opportunity to go see a waterfall that has been on my mind for a while. It’s called Mactaquac falls, and it was supposed to be around 10km of walking to the falls. My dumb ass thought that this is the one […]
Now that winter is over and I don’t have an excuse to keep dad and mom locked up in the house any longer and dad was complaining about how he hasn’t got his exercise yet, so I said challenge accepted. Did some google-foo during the day and I found this beautiful trail called Vulture bluff […]
