My upcoming week is busy, but not with Skool-related stuff. Appointments, Education research so I can get into a trade... maybe even research into resources to start a fabrication business and become a job creator.

@Lisa O'Brien The fact that I have been on a disability pension for the last 10 years and haven't been able to work a regular wage paying job. I want to have something that creates employment for persons with disabilities because there are far too few of them where I live. The other reason has more to do with what is happening in my province and some major changes that will be happening if there is a success referendum vote in October... kind of hedging my bets so I come out on top or at least closer to it then I am now regardless of the outcome.

Big shout out to @Roy Houston @Michael Lohse and @Lynette Wehner on being the community leaders (7day). Another big shout out to @Rodney Thompson Outdoor Skills , @Michael Lohse and @Amanda Cunningham-Gray for being 30 day leaders! This means these people have consistently shown up, engaged, offered something to the group and undertaken courses / polls / challenges etc. If you want to be tip top on the leaderboard, these are the things to do. Special shout out to @Michael Lohse for being on both Leaderboards! Amazing! I truly love when you folks get involved, everyone is valued and has something to offer the community. Keep being you 😎

I try... sometimes I go a while without saying anything due to being overloaded. We're currently under the oddest of advisories with both a snow squall warning and the potential for Wildfire Evac alerts... Not so worried about the wildfire evac alerts at the moment, but regardless, tomorrow I will be going through our bug out kit to make sure everything is where it needs to be and is in a compact enough package that it is easy and fast to pack and go.
Fractals for Wellbeing & Weekly Challenge!
Happy Wednesday folks, I've recently been reading into fractals and how they can support our wellbeing. You can view fractals in many different ways, however, as outdoorsy types, the best way is through nature. Fractal viewing has been linked to stress reduction, the increase in alpha brain waves and supporting positive mood. I've put together this infographic, I hope it helps. Weekly Challenge: This week's challenge is to head out and view / photograph some fractals in your area and come back and share in this thread 😁

I'll have to come back to this after I take some pictures. Nature is a little behind here due to a late spring.
Be Honest....
What's the one outdoor skill that you could do with brushing up on that you keep putting off?

@Lisa O'Brien Where I live I am basically surrounded forest and mountains. takes me about 5 minutes to get to what we call Crown Land here. It's free for anyone to access for hunting, hiking and day camping. I'm just going to pick a section that is enclosed by roads on all sides and run navigation drills that keep me within the boundary of that section of forest. That way if I get messed up all i need to do is pick a direction and walk until i hit a road.

@Lisa O'Brien seeing as I do all my stuff solo, it also gives me a set location for a search team in case I get injured and can't get back on my own.

I'll be outdoors this week, just not in the woods. It's garden season and I have garden beds to finish preparing for new topsoil which will be delivered as soon as the delivery truck won't sink to China in our yard.

@Lisa O'Brien honestly, I'm all about the real food. My household does a lot of preserving using various methods. other than lettuce for fresh salads, we don't grow anything that can't be canned, frozen or dehydrated for long term storage. We also tend to make our own butter and cheeses when we can find milk and cream at a good price.
