@MoonPalaceResorts – Day Two – Happy Birthday Mom! #ThePalaceLife

@MoonPalaceResorts – Day One – Check-In #ThePalaceLife

Off To Mexico! #ThePalaceLife

Music Monday – “Allow us to take you to the palm trees/Put your mind at ease Lay out in the sun Yuh feel the cool ocean breeze/Take a trip from Canada/I want all of us to go” @tasmanjude #ThePalaceLife

Twenty-four hours until we’re heading for the airport! Not sure how I first came across this groovy western Canadian reggae song (I think it was used for someone else’s travel montage video on YouTube?) but it’s become a staple of my “Tropical Holiday” playlist.

Do You Vote For The Crest on The Front or the Name on The Back? A Direct Appeal To @sask_NDP Members Filling Out Their #skndpldr Ballots #skpoli

(The original FB thread has been deleted but I’m posting this with the author’s permission.)    This post is ridiculously long so here’s the TL;DR version: Although there is a wide spectrum of engagement by all Sask NDP members, it generally divides between those who are very engaged and those who are less engaged.
