Rainy Camping Adventure in Bonnechere Provincial Park - Part 1 

Lisa, great to hear from you again. Bonnechere has become one of our favourite Provincial Parks. That's great that you will soon be experiencing it later this month - our favourite time to camp. Thanks for your kind comments and hope you have a wonderful camping trip.

Thank you Tammy. A woman after my own heart with your appreciation too for miles and miles of trees. It is such a beautiful area in our province of Ontario, Canada. Next week's video, Part 2, will provide even more hidden treasures from Bonnechere and near by. Thanks for following our journey Tammy.

There is nothing more humbling than being surrounded by the openness of trees and nature……. so very uplifting and grounding ❤️ Detrimental to the soul and spirit 😊❤️ Can’t wait for your next video, always so beautiful and peaceful. As always, take care and have an amazing rest of your week ❤️🌻

Claudi, yes, that Spruce Bog Boardwalk in Algonquin is very accessible and few of their trails are since most traverse rocks or difficult grades. But that was such a beautiful trail. I'm delighted that you enjoyed the assortment of wildlife, including my favorite - snakes. Insects are very interesting too, and often quite beautiful. Glad you're enjoying our camping adventures. The next one on Bonnechere is 1 hour and jam-packed. I think you'll love it. Thanks for watching.

Richard, always a delight to hear your kind comments. Shannon enjoyed hearing your kind words about her art and music choices. There was so much beauty in Bonnechere. Next video, Part 2, is an hour long...so get ready for that next Tuesday. Thanks so much for watching.

Loved your final comment Susan. We don't film a lot of our personal connection so that was lovely to read. So about the many blackfly bites we receive, often we get them when doing chores or quick walks to/from the trailer or truck and don't "bother" bundling up in our bug shirts. We really have no idea we've been "mobbed" by them until...well, when the lumps appear and are itchy. Delighted to hear you enjoy coming home to your "Tuesday Kathleen fix". Thanks for watching.

Hi Jean, you might be out on your camping/summer adventures too now. Hope you're enjoying yours. We absolutely loved being at Bonnechere. We have week to go here in Charleston Lake PP. The hiking and kayaking here have been fun! Thanks for watching.

Hi Susan, So glad you were moved to want to try out Bonnechere and the Spruce Bog Boardwalk Trial in Algonquin. I agree that there's beautiful scenery up that way. And you'd asked about Shannon's art. She only started painting with water colour during last camping season, since it's much easier to transport. She's been an acrylic artist for around 20 years and we have beautiful paintings around our house because of that.

Sharon, glad you enjoyed that. Thanks for joining us!

For sure, buy those bug nets...I carry one at all times on my camera belt, just in case I misjudge the buggyness until I'm out there! As for the best time to hike to avoid bugs, typically in the fall, after the first frost, when it's still warm. Frost kills off many flying bugs.

John, great to hear from you. Good to know that you and Michelle made it home safely. And we are disappointed we didn't get to meet you two in-person but certainly understand why. Send me an update by email about your friend when there's news to share. It's great that you had such an exciting time of exploration while visiting Ontario! I'm glad you're right back here with us (viewing on RU-vid) during the camping season as we are now entering our last week in Charleston Lake Provincial Park. Will you be posting videos of the wildlife seen during your visit, on your RU-vid Channel? Thanks, as always for your support.
