Baking videos are the warm treats at the end of a usually hard activity.\u00a0 I know I&#8217;m supposed to say that my favourite part is <em>&#8220;connecting with nature<\/em>&#8220;, or <em>&#8220;getting exercise&#8221;<\/em>, but let&#8217;s be real, it&#8217;s the reward at the end. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This walk in our local recreation site is not very difficult and it&#8217;s one that we do every couple of weeks.\u00a0 It&#8217;s perfect for those days where you want to get out and get some fresh air, but don&#8217;t have a lot of time to devote to hiking.\u00a0 The view of the valley at the end is beautiful, as you can see in the video.\u00a0 Even though it&#8217;s not a hard hike, it was definitely a nice change to have a treat at the end and take some time to enjoy the view, as usually we&#8217;re rushing up, and then back down!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Even Ruby liked it..the walk\/hike and the cake.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"
