This summer I'm going up to Boundary Waters Canoe Wilderness Area, MN with a friend. 10 days of camping, canoeing and exploration. I can't wait!

Last summer I took a solo road trip up to Gros Morne National Park in Newfoundland and car camped for 8 days. I drove up to Portland, ME and took the ferry to Yarmouth, NS. Then I drove the length of Nova Scotia to North Sydney where I picked up the ferry to Port aux Basques, NL. It was amazing! Highlights: ummm...the SCENERY; 10pm sunsets; snow and icebergs in July; great people; the hiking trails; boat tours; the absolutely fantastic little restaurant in Rocky Harbour where they go to the garden out front and pick the vegetables they're going to serve you; celebrating Canada Day with fellow campers and then having them celebrate Independence Day with me 3 days later (was not expecting that at all). My only regret was coming back home.
