Canada's Outdoors

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. . . . I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner,and reduce it to its lowest terms." Henry David Thoreau (1817-62), U.S. philosopher, author, naturalist. Walden, "Where I Lived, and What I Lived For" (1854). The Canadian Shield is made of the oldest rock on earth. Check out some of the sites on camping in Canada: Canadian Parks a la Yahoo.

My Country

Canadian Broadcasting Corporation

I agree with a friend of mine who says that on the 7th day, before he rested, God Created CBC Radio. A great internet site with live broadcasts.

The Web

I'm still learning but here are a few sites I've found Useful: A Beginner's Guide to Surfing and Downloading, My Old Servers Guide to Web Page Building.

Habitat For Humanity

My Favorite Charity - They build homes for disadvantaged people who qualify for their homes by swinging the hammer themselves or supporting those who do by helping out where they can. Check out Habitat Canada. Winnipeg's annual bike ride for Habitat is a great way to raise money for Habitat and get in shape at the same time. My girlfriend Bethan and I participated.
