Paint Creek State Park, Bainbridge, Ohio




If you are in Bainbridge Ohio... you should check out "Paint Creek State Park". We loved all the walking, the water views & boy did we wish we had our kayaks. There is just not enough room to take them when we go on long trips. Well that is different now that we have a "Casita". At the time when we took this trip we were driving our "Roadtrek 170 Popular", that's sold now. So here's hoping when we are back in Ohio we will go to this state park again for a real water kayakin' experience. Here's hoping. This was the view from our camping spot, right near the water, the hubby's fave. Beth ( :

Hello Berth, pretty views of the park and lake. The Casita looks like a nice way to travel. Did the Roadtrek use a lot of gasoline? Great photos. Happy Monday, enjoy your new week!

Looks like a wonderful place to camp. Love the sunset (?) in the last photo. We had a great time with our canoes this summer, and a few family members tried out kayaks. For some, it was a pretty exciting experience...way too many capsizes in kayaks and canoes! Fortunately I stayed in a canoe with my brother on every trip, and he has an awesome sense of balance. I am very thankful we never capsized! Swimming on a canoe trip is not my idea of fun!

Bar U Ranch National Historical Site, Alberta, Canada

"Bar U Ranch" , National Historic Site. Established in 1882, it was huge ranching operation  "even more info here." .  if you know anything about me, you will know I have always wanted to live on a farm, own a farm, have horses, cows, dogs, cats, garden, fields, quiet & peace the whole 9 or is it 10 yards. I want a mountain view like in the movie "Legend of the Fall" .  so when we got the chance to visit this location I really enjoyed seeing how the ranchers came in a took over the whole ranching/cattle business. it was hard work, long hours but if you had the right team you would do just fine. the shot over the campfire is a pot of coffee & hot water. the lady, let me see, i think her name was Greta, that could so be wrong but it is what is popping in my head this moment. she was great at telling the story. these men would all do different jobs. the chef would run with all his team ahead of the folks to set up and get

Here is her bloggy link if you would like to see her outstanding photography: "East Gwillimbury CameraGirl, Exploring Central Ontario (CANADA) ... and beyond" . We both shared such a love for travel & photography. You will be missed. Rest In Peace, great "CameraGirl", RIP! ( : Where do we even start?, I continued to say to my hubby throughout our trip to Washington, Oregon, northern CA back in August 2015, that I wondered how I could take a picture of the whole tall tree? The trees in in the eastern US are huge, but the trees out west are gigantic, massive, huge!! There are .... THEY ARE! ...how do I even begin to show a picture of these awesome trees? I don't own a fancy camera just a normal point and shoot. How do I express to you the magnitude of how tall these massive trees are? they are huge!!! & will you
