Hi! First time here. I’m thankful for this town welcoming visitors! Would you recommend renting a canoe or doing the cruise for first time visitors. Two pretty fit people no kids! Thank you :)

Hi! I posted a bit ago with hiking recommendations but would love some final advice on my final plans

Sunday- arrive- car rental- Canmore
Monday- lake Louise- big beehive hike- moraine lake
Tuesday- icefield parkway night in Jasper

For the rest I have two options

Option one
Wednesday- day in Jasper
Thursday- head back to Canmore (possible do cirque peak along the way? Is this crazy?)
Friday- choose between cirque peak, iceline trail, or a relaxing day of emerald and vermillion lake

Option two
Wednesday- back to Canmore (skipping day in Jasper)
Thursday- cirque peak or iceline trails
Friday- emerald lake and vermillion lake
(Thursday and Friday can be swapped based on weather)

If comes down to spending one or two nights in Jasper and what can allow us some flexibility with weather and potential smoke blocking views

Thank you!

If you could only pick 2 or 3 hikes total from Banff, the icefield parkway, and Jasper what would
You pick?

A little about us: First time visitors, we’re pretty fit and relatively young. Day hikes only. Beehive is on the list but we’d also like some less crowded trails (but not entirely empty since we aren’t used to the idea of grizzly bears), will pass on extremely difficult but moderate, slightly challenging is fine. Easy also fine.
Thank
You!

I love both! I’m planning on doing a national park trip so will be doing a couple all day hikes in the Rockies but also a lot of walking around the lakes and towns and general exploring.

I often hike in upstate New York as well but generally the hikes are only a few hours. Any input would be great!

They both fit well. The only thing I noticed is the cascadia is less comfortable on the ground in the store. But know that’s a sacrifice for not slipping on rocky terrain and not sure how well the ghosts would do with grip on hikes.

Edit: calderas now in the mix too.

My trip is 5 nights and 6 days. We want to visit lakes, hike, and drive the ice field parkway to Jasper. Right now we have 2 nights in Canmore, one night in Jasper, then back to Canmore for another two. Would you recommend two nights in Jasper or to keep as is?

Also with possible haze and smoke does 2 nights give us a safer chance or seeing the area? (But then again the same can be said vice versa) thank you!

Hi- I’m planning a spontaneous hiking trip there (banff and the ice field parkway) in mid August. I don’t have anything booked yet and since it’s an expensive trip was wondering if anyone recommends post pining to another year due to the smoke blocking views or air quality making it tough to hike. Thanks so much!

Hi! I’m debating taking a spontaneous trip to banff and the icefields parkway in mid August. Nothing is booked yet so I wanted to ask if the wildfires and smoke are effecting the area poorly or not. It’s quite expensive so debating if I should rain check this trip.

Thanks so much!

People who have had children- I have constant tearing at the opening. So much so that it tears Everytime I have sex. I’m considering pregnancy and wanted to ask about experiences with or preferences on natural birth vs C-Section. Thank you!

Hi- my father is on palliative care, most likely dying and in chronic pain that morphine won’t touch. I’d love a referral for an acupuncturist near windham NH. Londonderry and Salem are close. Manchester is 40 minutes away. Bonus points for house calls.

He has sjorgens disease, AFIB, and interstital lung disease. He says all of those things he could live with but his chronic heads ache makes him want to die (speculated to be pinching of a nerve in his neck due to arthritis but not officially diagnosed). Does anyone have any recommendations? I want to help him so badly.

Hi! I never got the HPV vaccine and am in my late 30’s. I’m debating if I should or not. I’m a bit hesitant vaccines might cause a flare up. Does anyone have any experience or advice with this? Thanks!

I started buspar last night 5mg. Than 5mg around 1 pm today.

I also took my vyvanse arouns 9 am as usual.

From 2-8 I was super angry and irritable. It felt like rage. I felt pretty unable to function and can’t imagine continuing to teach my piano students or play at a wedding if I ever felt like that again. I’m scared to even try it for a couple days to see if it stops.

Should I discontinue? Try a lower dose? Push through it? Doesn’t go away quickly?

Thanks!

In my contract it says I am responsible for minor repairs regardless if it is my fault. Minor meaning less than $500.

My bathroom sink stopped working. The town shut off everyone’s water to do some repairs but when it came back the bathroom sink is a slow trickle.

I know landlords are responsible for plumbing so I’m wondering if this is legal?

Thanks for any advice. I’m in New York

Hi! I’d really like to try this suggestion of taking meds before fully waking up. But I’ve found with Aderolll I have to take it with a protein filled breakfast or else I get a strange effect from it (focusing on negative things, feeling socially awkward, too intense). I’m wondering if anyone experiences this? Is there anything I should look into switching- dosage, medication type etc, or is it fairly common to need a full meal for it to have positive effects?

Hi! I’m thinking of having a baby and own a music studio. I would love any and all advice as to how to make it work (or if a career switch may be needed).

I see 38 kids from Monday-Thursday as well as perform harp at weddings and other gigs. I would love to hear how other women have done it while maintaining their career. Were you able to teach while having your baby in the room or was a baby sitter necessary? And how did it work at Older stages? Once my child is in school I’m afraid I would never see them if continue using to work afternoon/evening hours (but maybe not teaching Friday-Sunday makes up for that).

Please share your experience with me :) thank you!
