Tree Museum

This past weekend I had a great time celebrating my mother, I hope you did too!  Then a few days ago, I went to a tree museum for the first time in my life.  It sounds odd, but it was a beautiful walk through the forest with added art installations that artists, inspired by the landscape, had been commissioned to create.  We had a picnic lunch and then strolled the forest for a few hours taking in the self guided tour.  It was a great way to get outside on a beautiful day and get some use of of my boots!

Ice Skating in Central Park

Every time I’ve seen a movie featuring New York City in the winter, there’s always ice skating.  It always looks so dreamy and picture perfect, and like the kind of ice skating you always wanted to partake in.  It’s either under the Rockefeller tree or in Central Park.  So when we were going to New York in December this activity was at the top of my must-do list, just so I could say I’d done it! Let me tell you, it was as much fun as I’d imagined it would be.

Rapid Hangout

Got to play a show 30 minutes from my hometown and then spend some quality time with my family this month.  I have four siblings and two of them had their birthdays within a week of each other and my mum’s birthday, so it’s quite the busy last couple weeks of August.  On one of my mornings off, we were able to snap a couple shots by some rapids close to home.  Gearing up for a big fall, full of music and awesome adventures, so I loved having a couple hours to enjoy nature!

Algonquin Park

I love seeing new places, but I also love returning to favorite places.  Algonquin Park is very close to my hometown and there is a rock that all of my siblings and I have had pictures taken at.  The pictures were all taken when we were small, but I went back recently and took some photos to capture the magic of this spot as an adult.  We also found some new spots in the park that I hadn’t seen before.  Algonquin Park is massive, so the possibilities to be discovered are nearly endless.  I also found this camouflage jacket at Free People and I’m obsessed.  I want to wear it everywhere, but I felt it was especially fitting for this pictures.  I love being outside, and these photos completely capture that.  What is one of your favorite places to revisit?
