A Summer of Hiking

September 28, 2011

I'm still in denial about the end of summer. It doesn't help when fall is such a gorgeous season here in Nova Scotia (it makes up for the cold, wet, miserable spring). There are some days still hot enough for the beach. Who can think about autumn and the inevitable cold of the winter that follows on such days?

This weekend I posted A Summer of Hiking in Nova Scotia at our family's adventure blog. 

You'll want to check it out if you have any interest in family hiking, enjoy nature photography, want to see where we went and what we saw this summer, or live in the Maritimes. So hey, that should cover all of you! I'm shameless, I know. 

But really, if you live in Nova Scotia (I know a few of you do) you may want to read it. In that post I share some of our favorite (you'll notice I still spell like an American) and not-so-favorite trails we discovered this summer and give recommends for good beginner hikes. 

I love hiking with my family. We are excited about our next move which is bringing us back to the mountains and much more hiking opportunities. Anticipating the winter snows that blanket Gaspésie for months and months we have invested in cross country skiis and can't wait to start pursuing this outdoor activity as a family. 

But I'm still not ready to say goodbye to summer.

How about you? What family outdoor activity do you remember fondly from this summer? What are you looking forward to this winter?
