Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
We haven’t been out in our home-made canoe yet this year. Probably a number of reason for this but the main ones are: It’s not going to be easy to man-handle onto and off the roof rack of our camper. I’ve been wanting to add some buoyancy to it for the sake of safety. Although...
It would have been nice to continue my Coast Path Run on Saturday, but the Colwyn Bay Blast had finished my legs off for the day so there was to be none of that running malarkey. I’d been invited to join the Dyffryn Conwy Paddlers on Sunday though for a kayaking session at Llyn Geirionydd in...
More summer fun at Ynyslas as the summer starts to come to a close. A nice long walk first thing in the morning as the sun rose. Followed by A SUP Surf and some more tandem surfing with Morgan – So much fun! After a little bit of pottering in the garden and the shed...
I know I usually try to have an action packed weekend making the most of what Wondrous West Wales has to offer but this weekend was particularly good. It started on Friday with my usual early morning walk around the dunes and then a trip into town. Anna had a few chores and some shopping...
Another packed weekend for us with plenty to do, both recreationally and in the garden. It turned out quite productive though. A Morning Washout Saturday was a complete washout in the morning with dark skies and pouring rain, so after my usual chores and some work on the computer I jumped on the turbo trainer...
Just a little video clip of our adventure exploring a mudflat creek in our canoe at the weekend.
If only Summer could be like this for more than just a few days. Sunday was another gorgeous day with wall to wall sunshine for the most part. it never really got warm though only making it to 14ºC but that didn’t stop us has a lovely day around the delightful Dyfi estuary. Early Morning...
What a perfect evening that was for a canoeing and kayaking session in Cwm Rheidol. The usual suspects were there from Aber Kayakers to take the Scouts and Cubs out on the water whilst the Beavers went for a walk around the lakes. We took our self-built canoe along for an outing too which got...
The sun was shining, Morgan was off school and I’d promised him we would get the canoe out and go to the beach. So, after a meeting in the morning that is exactly what we did. Slip, Slap Slop and we were ready to do battle with the sun and the waves. Our inflatable canoe that...
What a scorcher! It felt like summer yesterday and with Morgan off school and Anna having a day off work I decided to join them and we headed across to the beach first thing in the morning. Morgan and I headed off in the inflatable canoe whilst Anna sat on the beach relaxing and reading...
