    The Spruce Bog Boardwalk Trail at Algonquin Provincial Park is an easy and accessible path that everyone can enjoy. This relatively flat, wheelchair accessible loop path takes you through the forest and across two Algonquin spruce bogs (the Sunday Creek bog and a small kettle bog). It’s one of the top Algonquin Park hiking trails.

    On March 24th (my birthday), we went on a road trip to The Last Spike. As a child of CPR, I have been here many times; I was slightly sad to see that the spot was in a bit of disrepair. Iping, this is just because this is off-season travel; when I was a kid, you could go inside the caboose location, which, looking in the windows, looks like it has not been kept up. Several years ago, my grandfather's car (now located at the Relolstoke rail museum) was on-site now where his car sits on an empty track. This beautiful piece of Canadian history needs to be respected, visited more, and kept in good repair!

    As always, we traveled for an off-season trip! This time to celebrate my birthday at Crazy Creek Resort in the Canadian Rockies! This resort features 2 (2 during off-season, 3 during on-season) hot pools and 1 cold plunge pool. The grounds are also situated on the old land of the town of Taft, BC. Here, you can take a beautiful walking path and explore the ruins of what once was a well-known railway town. As a child raised by a CPR engineer and conductor, the CPR history through the grounds is breathtaking. Pro Tip, stay in the pools until closing (9am) and listen to the audio that starts to play from 8:50 pm - about 9:10...it is worth it (I am not going to spoil the excitement and surprise but I really enjoyed it)!!
