I too dreamed of it - for 47 years - I decided when I was 6 years old that one day I would live in the forests and mountains - one with the forest. Many detours later - I managed it. In a word it is amazing to live the way I do. I sit at my desk and watch wildlife, bears, deer, moose...

thank you for the welcome. Are you in England? I have never been there - complicated - but if I do end up there - I want to see Stone Henge - have you been there? I think the cities of England would overwhelm me with their size and population numbers. But the countryside, from pictures...

good morning: hope it is a good day. Do you participate in hiking, camping....outdoor recreation? The part of Ontario you are from has many interesting hiking areas. I am an outdoor fanatic - I believe that I am really a forest creature haha. I love all outdoor activities - except...

good morning - thank you for the Welcome. Do you live in British Columbia? I am in the interior - about 100kms from Kamloops - up in the hills. PEACE

Loghead - I lived in Ottawa for a year in the early 1970's - too many civil servants and suits for my liking. The area around Ottawa however is lovely. Have you gone cross country skiing and/or camping in the Gatineau Hills - magnificent place. I also like the little village of Wakefield...

Bravo - not only is riding your bike healthy for you - it is healthy for Mother Earth. Remaining active - is key - although modern society with all its pressures and stresses undermines our ability to find the adequate time to care for our physical selves (and subsequently our spiritual...

I agree - being a mother and working really does cut down on the amount of time and energy you have to spend on yourself. Doing it gradually - as you are - still maintaining regular exercise - will pay off in the long run. PEACE

I would disagree with the 'useless' - unless you are a dedicated body builder - strength training does not make BMI useless - just interpreted differently. PEACE

thanks - I spent 35 years living in southwestern Ontario - teaching, organizing and participating in non-violent direct action around social justice issues. where are you in Ontario? PEACE

I sometimes do miss the amenities of the city - but when there I feel so confined - too crowded - too much noise - too many lights - but I do like to visit the city - about once a year. PEACE:wave:

I spent 35 years living in 'flat' land in southwestern Ontario, Canada - nurturing my little family - when the kids were all grown I headed for the mountains and forests. I love it here. I have not been to the US since the early 1970's - my human rights work has prevented me from crossing...

my 'job' Thank you for your welcome. I am new to this site - so far I am enjoying it. Talking to others about all sorts of topics. Yes, my job is 'cool'. I decided when I was six years old (many years ago) that this is what I wanted to do. For many years I was a human rights activist -...

I grew up in foster homes - nothing was ever kept - no childhood photos, no special toys, no treasures - EXCEPT one - I don't know how I managed to keep it - but I have a wooden nickle that was given to me when I was five years old. The Queen of England visited London, Ontario in 1955 and...

have to agree with you here - Republicans do not seem to know anything about self-reflection and deep thinking - they only know about intolerance, conflict and self righteousness. Cdn. two cents. PEACE

It is not only laughable - it is predictable. As a Cdn. who has studied US politics and policy for the last 39 years - the Republicans either make war or criticize those who do not make war and spend all of their time in opposition belittling, degrading and scandalizing the Democrats - not much...

Thanks for the heads up on the womens own adventure site - it is quite interesting. Because of my work I am pretty much limited to travel in our (Canada) winter - which is summer in Australia. I am definitely interested in such activities. This summer I am hiking the West Coast Trail - which...

life in the wilderness thank you for your response ArtLife - yes living in the wilderness is amazing; even with all the work. I enjoy my time here - watching the wildlife and birds. I do not hunt or fish - I am a vegetarian. I have deer, bears, moose, coyotes, cougars, martens, foxes - and...
