A hike up Mount Braden with good friends was a perfect way to start a long weekend and remind me what I am thankful for. 💛

I continue to be shocked that airline attendants are only paid when the plane is moving. In what other job are you expected to work but not get paid?

Got a call today looking for money for the Fire Fighters Burn Fund. Watch out folks, it’s a scam!

The Burn Fund really is a great cause, please consider donating – but they don’t phone for fundraising so don’t give your info if you get a call! 🙅🏼‍♂️

I always love coming back to this trail at Goldstream Park. Some challenging inclines paired with thick vegetation, gorgeous waterfalls… and a great group of ppl to enjoy it with.
Another successful @outinthewoodsvi.bsky.social day!

I always like hiking Mount Quimper… even if my shoes are full of water by the end. 😄
