Camping Again

As usual, a group of us made it out to a provincial park again this year for the annual Shore Things camping getaway. This time, we’re at Balsam Lake. Food is delish as usual, and lively conversation.

Plus friendly critters.

Toronto Star Looking For Testimonials

Thanks to Ruth for spotting this!

In a city always on the move, walking offers a rare chance to slow down — to notice things, to reconnect, to breathe. Whether it’s part of your daily commute, a mental health ritual, or just how you explore new neighbourhoods, walking can quietly transform the way we live in Toronto.

As part of our Toronto the Better Walking series, we’re working on a feature called “How walking changed my life” — and we want to hear from you.

Has walking helped you through a tough time? Sparked a meaningful connection? Shifted how you see the city — or yourself? Maybe it’s become your go-to way to unwind, or your path to somewhere entirely new.

Whatever your story, if walking has made a difference in your life, we’d love to hear it.
