First Stop @ Springridge Farm

After every weekend when I go back to work on Monday's, some of my colleagues namely Dave and myself discuss as to where we went on the weekends, while he shares some of his ideas and I share too and in many ways this is an idyllic scene, but to be honest , for a while today I was feeling a bit tired and jaded about travel. When you're going out almost every other week the spark of newness fades, and travel can feel like a long, pointless slog, a detour from life. It makes me laugh sometimes and wince at times. But more often reminds me of why I travel: to learn and grow, to challenge myself, stretch my limits and foster an appreciation of both the world at large, imparts new vigor to the mind and most importantly instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.

For me ever since I came back from India, seeing places has been like a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living. Once traveled the voyage never ends, the mind can never break off from the journey. Truly "We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventures. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open" as rightfully quoted by Jawaharlal Nehru.

So our first stop was Springridge Farm. I have been wanting to visit a farm for the longest time and then came Easter when I found out about this Farm, not very far from my place and located on the side of the Niagara Escarpment in Milton. The lush farmlands throughout the Niagara Escarpment gives us nature's bounty and they were having Easter Egg Hunt at the Farm. So off we went. My kids enjoyed Easter Egg Hunt with the Easter Bunny, Wagon Ride and Farm Tour, Access to the Fun Farmyard: animal barn, Giant Sandbox, Corn Trail, Face Painting and many more. Last but not the least enjoyed the mouthwatering hot dogs.

Atleast I was happy that we've started to venture out and see different places and things.

P.S: Sorry guys no pictures as I lost them even though all my pictures are saved in my back up machine but unable to locate them.
