One of the great things about living in the Pacific Northwest is that you don't have to go very far to wander in the woods. This past weekend, we opted for something a little more woodsy and we loved our time at Byrne Creek Ravine Park.

A few weeks ago, we visited Central Park in Burnaby, BC and we enjoyed the walk so much that we've gone back a couple of times already. For an urban park located in the city, Central Park gave us so many options for things to do.

We finally got to visit Deer Lake Park in Burnaby, British Columbia, which is east of Vancouver and offers a beautiful and peaceful walk around Deer Lake. The path around the park is a combination of crushed gravel, dirt and a stretch of wooden walkways.

From the last update, we took Markus out to Red Truck Beer Company's Barks and Brews Event. We took him to a couple new walks and parks and we're breaking in a new couch!

David Gray Park is an off-leash dog park located in Burnaby, British Columbia. The park is mostly dirt and sandy with areas of grass towards the end. It is a very spacious park, which is great for reactive dogs like Markus.
