So a group of us are heading to Presqu’ile for a tramping trip this weekend. We’ll be leaving tonight and will be back on Sunday evening.
From the website it sounds like an interesting place:
A mecca for birdwatchers every spring and fall, this peninsula south of Brighton is a major flyway for migrating birds, home to waterfowl and shorebirds, and a staging point for Mexico-bound monarch butterflies. A long boardwalk crosses wetlands where marsh birds live and fish spawn. On islands to the west, colonies of gulls, cormorants, terns and herons nest. At the tip of the park are Ontario’s second-oldest operating lighthouse and the original lighthouse keeper’s cottage.
The last time I actually slept in a tent was in eleventh grade on a school arranged camp trip, so this will be fun. The sun has come out to play too today, after a week of gloominess and rain, so hopefully it will carry through the weekend.
I’m excited!
In other news today I have my first official volunteer photographer gig for The Lorraine Kimsa Theatre for Young People (LKTYP). I joined their volunteer photographer roster a month before I left for Sydney but couldn’t make it out to photograph any events then. The assignment sounds simple enough:
Thom has requested a photographer for a summer drama school teacher training session here on Friday June 20 from 12:30 - 1:30. During this time there will be some role-playing activities that we would love to have documented.
I recharged my camera battery overnight so I’m good to go.
Excitement x2!!
Next update after I’m back from the camping trip
