Camping in Algonquin Park

After a hectic move back to Ottawa and the rush of finishing my thesis, I decided to book some time off at the end of the summer. Luckily, Melissa, one of my best friends that I met in Vancouver, was able to come in for a visit. Melissa is also from Ontario, so we decided to spend a few days camping at Algonquin Provincial Park. 

We decided to camp at the Achray Campgrounds, which was the closest site to Ottawa. The weather was very cool for the time of year, but we had a relaxing vacation. Our campsite was a quick walk from the lakeside beach, and we managed to hike the scenic Barron Canyon. 

It was wonderful. We spent our free time relaxing on the beach during the day and listening to loons at night. We also took a quick hike to see the spot where Tom Thomson sketched his famous The Jack Pine painting in 1916. Many reading this blog might not know who Tom Thomson was, but in Canadian art history, he is celebrated as one of the best Canadian painters and an unofficial member of the Group of Seven. He loved visiting Algonquin Park, and it inspired many of his paintings.

Although the original tree is gone, we enjoyed this special spot in history. After reading up on the painting, we realized that the original could be found at the National Art Gallery in Ottawa. So, after an enjoyable weekend of camping, we decided to see the painting in person. In a section of the museum dedicated to the Group of Seven, we found Tom Thomson’s The Jack Pine

  1. This is not the very first time I uncovered a blogging site that was worthy
    of participating in a comment section on. This particular kind of piece
    is high quality to me personally. I genuinely live a life-style of a good number of
    settings; that is to say that my job activities vary. I carry out Postpartum Massage.
    Aside from that, I buy and sell antiques. I’m being taught Linux.
    And, that’s only a handful of pursuits I do. In any case, my point is,
    each of us all approaches a subject from a exclusive point of view.
    Just about every experience all of us have structures us and each
    of our viewpoint of our own selves and the society all around you and me.

    I imagine uncovering some larger view of actuality is where almost everything all of us communicate regarding brings us to.
    That being said, exactly how do folks afterward correspond?
    Is it actually possible? I think all of our unique additions to the Internet
    Commons alters quite a few people today, possibly.

    Hence contemplate that, bloggers and folks writing comments.
    Your own personal remark could certainly help out someone else.
    Or, feedback can certainly achieve the antipode.

    And, you genuinely ought to care to try to support other people to mature and absolutely not suffer.

    Thank you for this unique post; I personally am logging this site together with my additional very good weblogs I’ve uncovered that I actually bothered to remark on. Always keep producing!

  4. I can’t consider almost everything we get bothered about in our lives makes a difference.
    At all times invested in thinking about the several things that we deal with
    every single and every day is in fact really important, as no other man is going to deal
    with your life for any of us. I feel that folk
    should be a whole lot more mentally stable. Knowledge is amazing, however,
    so much of whatever you think about is indeed abstract. Having a cup of kava
    is a zen activity that brings one back to the present moment in time.

    We have to become more in the here and now, without being confused by existence and the episodes we experience every day.

  7. Hi, blog creator and visitors! I actually will be able to express that I absolutely love the Net.
    The rise of the individual blogging platform, for me personally, has been nearly the
    most beneficial improvement ever before! I adore
    reading through weblogs, and this kind of blogging site is positively no exception.
    I am employed as an Chair Event Massage Advisor.
    That simply leaves me personally having plenty of leisure time
    during the work day to scan blogs and such.
    I would preferably read web blogs rather than media any time.

    What normal people today have to state, what exactly these people experience and ponder,
    this makes a difference to me indeed very much greater. A blog is so
    private and considerably substantive mainly because it will come from a person’s inspiration and
    essential reflection of themselves. Certainly, I don’t suggest a blog
    for a giant business organization; that’s probably not a “web log” by any means!

    I really am a complex character. I personally create blog page comments genuinely to edify
    and illumine a number of people, an ambition pointed to help the benefit of all of us.

    I don’t quite care just what exactly someone dresses like, whatever body colouring scheme you
    surely have, what verbiage people express themselves in, or perhaps even exactly what name you use for The lord or perhaps moreover believe
    the comprehensive concept of faith is absurd. I will be able to admire you as an individual.
    I may well master unique points by way of a person and to be able to be friends.
    Every of us all reveals a little something unique in the other person. Just
    about every single particular person we come across is the possibility to
    have entertainment discovering about ourselves and the universe out there us.

    Families desire some kind of view of meaning in their very own experiences, and additionally it’s not necessarily some imagined interpretation,
    simply it is usually seriously showing appreciation for
    and recognizing the more complete substance guiding each individual one of the world’s sequences.
    Think about that particular interpretation! “It’s when it comes to the symbolism in the boring, the numinous in the everyday, the excellent patterns inside of the chaos.” -quote from D.E.E

  8. I also believe that mesothelioma cancer is a scarce form of cancer that is normally found in those previously exposed to asbestos. Cancerous tissue form within the mesothelium, which is a protective lining that covers a lot of the body’s areas. These cells normally form from the lining from the lungs, abdomen, or the sac that encircles the heart. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
