I find that for myself, going out for a bit of quiet solo hike is a great opportunity to mull over whatever problem I'm trying to tackle with work. When we lived in Westdale in Hamilton, we were only a couple of blocks from the RBG trails around Coote's Paradise, so that was a frequent destination. In Ancaster it was even better, with easy access to a wide variety of gorgeous trails on and around the Bruce Trail just minutes away — really helped with the post-TeamWave and early ProjectForum work. Waterloo wasn't as great, though there were some shorter trails around the Laurelwood Conservation Area a couple of minutes from where we lived. Guelph may be a bit tougher; we're a couple blocks from the river and the trail system there, but it's more urban and populated, less ideal for solitary thinking. Guelph Lake or Hanlon Creek CA may be possibilities, we'll see.
