Wide Awake Thanks to the Northern Lights

Postcard-Exploring Planet Hoth from Churchill, Manitoba

Churchill, Manitoba is north. Far north. It is on the edge of the Arctic Circle and near the tree line. That’s the line where the trees end and the ice world begins (in winter). In summer I imagine the tundra to be beautiful, but my trip took me up north in winter to view the […]

Sunset Sunday – Lake Huron, Ontario, Canada

Originally, I started following Wendy on Twitter when I discovered a shared appreciation for Mexico. But when I started Sunset Sunday, she consistently posted photos of sunsets on Twitter. All of Lake Huron in Ontario, Canada. I wondered what made the lake and location so special? Well, I asked her share a photo and some […]

Canadian Giants

Canadian Giants

Canada. Majestic landscape, hockey, and as any New Yorker knows, (but doesn’t care to admit) the better side of Niagara Falls. And now as Vancouver plays host to the 2010 Winter Olympics, nightly we all learn more. As a frequent traveler to the ‘Great White North’ I can offer advice on Canada, but I wonder […]
