Since I returned back to Ontario last week, I found this summer to be cooler and smoggier than I remembered.

Long weekend at Windy Pine
This past long weekend, I returned to Peterborough and went back to Windy Pine to visit friends and tried mothing once again (just like last year).

Bridgenorth Trail & Miller Creek Cons. Area revisited
Last year, I biked to a nearby conservation area called Miller Creek. However, the biking was not as safe I preferred since I was basically biking on a busy country road. However, near where I live now, there is a close trail that takes me there and through the countryside. I biked through it today and like the trail quite a lot - quiet, safe, easy, etc.
Saw a dead frog on the hot gravel road.

Jackson Park, Peterborough
My mother returned back to BC yesterday, so I am officially on my way through graduate school now. Just need to wait for the classes to start next Tuesday.
I went for a short jog in the morning when I was taking out the garbage. It was incredibly warm and humid but it felt good to explore and discover more of Peterborough.
Then in the afternoon, I went to check out a park nearby where I live called Jackson Park. It is a beautiful place with a small lake right at the entrance with many trails and streams running around it. [Most of the photos in this post were taken with the OM lens. I'll probably use the wider lens the next time.]
