When I started my blog in May of this year, I purchased my domain as a belated birthday present to myself. I thought it would be nice to have a place to document my trips and share a few tips with other parents traveling with children. I thought my friends and family that enjoyed myContinue reading “Looking Back on 2020 – A Year In Review”

Bench Road FSR
If you have followed my blog for awhile now, you know that my favourite roads are the dirt ones. I took my friend for an adventure down Chilliwack Lake Road and then turned up Airplane FSR to Bench Road. It is quite hilly as you climb up and around the mountain, but the gorgeous viewsContinue reading “Bench Road FSR”
Black Bear Beauty
Friday was the first full day of school and I thought I would enjoy the sunshine and take my dog for a 5km walk around the neighbourhood while the kids were at school. It was a beautiful day with clear skies and we were about halfway home, walking along a slough that we usually seeContinue reading “Black Bear Beauty”
Wondrous White Rock, British Columbia
We arrived mid afternoon and cruised most of Marine Drive looking for a vacant parking stall! Once parked, we wandered from the far parking lot along the sandy beach enjoying low tide all the way to the pier. Then we walked under the pier almost all of the way out, finding lots of creatures (andContinue reading “Wondrous White Rock, British Columbia”
Camping Quesadillas
One of my favourite no-mess meals to make on the road is Camping Quesadillas!! You get a delicious meal with very few dishes, especially if you prep your filling at home- which I highly recommend! Ingredients: 8 Large Soft Tortilla Shells Chicken, beef, or pulled pork(optional) Shredded Cheese (I pack around 2 Cups for ourContinue reading “Camping Quesadillas”
Kettle River Recreation Area
From the highway it does not look like much, but once you get into the campground you are sure to be impressed! We were lucky to get a site near the river for one night on Canada Day! Even the Ranger told us how lucky we were to get such a beautiful site. We spentContinue reading “Kettle River Recreation Area”
S’mores Cones
I kept seeing this trend of making S’mores in an ice cream cone and finally decided we needed to try it! My kids love S’mores – I mean who doesn’t? The great thing about the variety of cooking options is that you can make these when you’re camping, at a BBQ, or at home! TheyContinue reading “S’mores Cones”
Take the Back Roads, Not the Highway
Sometimes I just feel the need to get in my truck and drive. My husband was home today and after a week full of home owner disasters, I felt the need to go for a drive. I texted my husband and made sure he didn’t have plans, then texted my friend to see if sheContinue reading “Take the Back Roads, Not the Highway”
Camping Lasagna
This lasagna recipe is based on one that I made in Grade 12 cooking class many, many, many years ago! I just kept tweaking it over the years and now I honestly do not even use a recipe anymore! So, in order to write this post I had to make it again and actually measureContinue reading “Camping Lasagna”
Alexandra Bridge
Just outside of Yale is a beautiful piece of British Columbia’s history called Alexandra Bridge. I always take Highway 9(Agassiz-Rosedale BC 9N) to enjoy the backroad scenery instead of being stuck in traffic on Highway 1. You continue straight and merge onto Highway 7, then keep right at the fork to merge onto Hwy 1E(signsContinue reading “Alexandra Bridge”
