Camping Up North

We have spent the last two weeks camping, well trailering, north of North Bay and it is a different experience. Up here there are no distractions such as museums, boutiques and restaurants to occupy you especially on a wet day. It is just you, your e-reader, smart phone and laptop ( with or without Internet). Apparently this isn't enough for some who are constantly pacing with nothing to do. I come here to relax fish a little, kayak a little, read a lot and do some hiking oh yeah and take several hundred pictures. I can't fail to understand people who can't shut down the same way on a rainy day that they would on a sunny day, nor do I get the idea that traveling 7 plus hours to just sit in the sun and moan about temperature .

Get out and enjoy people!, listen for the raven, look for the rabbit check out the neat patterns on spider web that is glistening with dew. You don't have to leave your comforts behind but maybe your attitude needs checking at the door.

Got to go I hear the loon calling me.
