A Trip To VanDusen

We have passes to Van Dusen so we can drop by any time we want and not feel bad about only having a short visit. I had been meaning to visit earlier because VanDusen has lots of opportunities for fall colors but the weather hadn't been soon good. Helen got a new camera for her birthday so we just had to get outside and take some photos.

A SLR has a bit of a learning curve and babies have short attention spans, so we didn't get to take that many photos. Being a two camera house will give us new possibilities for taking photos.

First Drive: 2012 Toyota Camry

So, yesterday Toyota officially unveiled the 2012 Camry. Given that it's the best-selling car in America several years running, and that Toyota has moved 15 million of them worldwide since its introduction in 1983, the likelihood is you either own a Camry, have owned a Camry, or know someone who fits one of those descriptions. While the current 2011 Camry is an eminently practical car, it's a bore to look at inside and out, and it's not exactly exciting to drive. It seems Toyota grew tired of being a pi�ata for car reviewers to smack around in the face of more stylish and equally, if not more capable newcomers like the Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima. We know this because we got to drive the new Camry at Citi Field yesterday. It's impressive.

Open Question: how do i find the bruce trail entrance? (hiking)?

Trying to find an entrance as close to toronto as possible without going to hamilton.

Such as getting off the 401 and getting into the trail and finding parking without going to far on a detour. Unfortunately the site charges for maps and I rather wouldn't pay for it. So it's hard to find a proper entrance without going hamilton.

I'm hoping someone who knows the trail can point me out with possible car directions.

I'm thinking at the moment just going to 401 west to thompson and derry and just searching for an entrance. I'm also confused as to how the trail could possibly cut through the huge 401 am I better off getting off somewhere north of the 401 to start my hiking adventure?

Thanks.

Consumer Reports now recommends extended warranties? Well, no.

We were pretty surprised when we recieved this press release with the headline "Consumer Reports Shares Evidence Confirming Benefits of Extended Service Plans."If Consumer Reports' latest product research was making a stronger case for purchasing extended warranties that would be pretty big news since for years, the magazine has advised consumers that extended warranties (also called extended service plans) just aren't worth it for the vast majority of purchases. The press release came from NEW -- a company that says it sells extended warranties for Amazon.com, Target, Walmart and a bunch of other major retailers. The problem? Consumer Reports hasn't changed its tune: it still advises shoppers not buy extended warranties in the vast majority of cases.

Open Question: I'm used to camping but this time his mum and dad are with us, please help?

I normally go camping with just me and my fiance. I usually pack a smallish suitcase and take a couple of pairs of jeans, 2 pairs of shorts and enough t-shirts so I have one per day. I take a small make-up bag, my 2-in-1 hair stuff and body wash, and a hairbrush. I just tie my hair up. This time we are going to a rally with his parents, no proper shower and only portaloos. We are then spending a day with his sister on a picnic before going camping alone. Now, I don't know what to take (his dad is constantly having a go at me for being so 'frivolous' and 'wasteful' so I don't want to take a big suitcase) this means I am going from Friday to Tuseday at the rally, then weds to Sun camping. I also am not sure of the 'proper' etiquette for camping with (awful) inlaws. For example, my fiance and I usually take turns cooking, but his mum (convinced she is a 'fab' chef,but makes everything taste like uncooked mince) will insist on doing everything. We have to share our tent with them for four days....please give me your advice and help...what do I pack? What is the ettiqute in this situation? Thank You.

Open Question: safest way to carry a camp axe/hatchet without a sheath?

I purchased a Walmart hatchet/camp axe for when I go camping and hiking. Typically I'd carry my machete, but I'm lending it to a friend for the trip.

This hatchet did not come with a sheath. What is the safest way to carry my hatchet for when I go hiking? I don't want to keep it in my hands but its also has to be easy to reach for quick use.
