Saturday Snap – “God’s Lighting Rig” @reginafolkfest #rff19

We haven’t been to Regina Folk Fest for a few years since we got our RV and now tend to be camping every weekend in the summer. But since it was the RFF’s 50th Anniversary this year, we decided to cut camping short this weekend so we could catch at least part of the festival. […]

Friday Fun Link – The Most Iconic Sandwich of Every State

It’d be interesting to try to do a Canadian version of this list.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Public Library Cuts Again? #abpoli (June 2010)

It seems like one of the highest priorities for any conservative government is targeting the funding of public libraries – in Newfoundland (May 2016), in Saskatchewan (March 2017), in Ontario (April 2019), and now in Alberta (August 2019 (although to be fair, Jason Kenney’s Conservatives haven’t cut yet but are withholding 50% in advance of […]

Instead of Fighting About Politics on the Internet…

…maybe I should just upload screenshots of the witty retorts I draft but then discard without posting because I don’t feel like getting into it with people?

Five Things I Love The Most About Our rPod 182G

Hard to believe we’ve had our 2012 rPod for five years now having bought it used during summer 2014. Through the first couple years of pulling it around the province, one year in a provincial seasonal site and the last couple in a regional park, I continue to feel like we made an awesome decision […]

Music Monday – “I’ve been drinkin’ to remember and drinkin’ to forget/I got “I love you” on my mind, I got Jim Beam on my breath”

  I posted a Cody Jinks song before I went on holidays so why not post another Jinks’ song since it was in the top three of my most listened to songs over the past couple weeks (with the other two – “Cumberland Gap” by Jason Isbell and “Tear Stained Eye” by Son Volt both […]

Camping Wrap-Up

It’s weird how time can sometimes seem so slow (when you’re lazing through most days with some tunes, a good book and tasty beers) and at the same time, so fast (when you have a two week holiday that feels like it only lasted two days.) We had a great two weeks camping with lots […]

Camping Conclusion

It was a great way to end our final full day of our camping holiday as the campground where we have our seasonal site had planned a “Summer Fun Party” for Saturday August 3 featuring a free pancake breakfast, a show & shine car show, a slo-pitch tournament and beer garden with live music throughout […]

Camping Quest

Every Friday, our campground hides a piece of pottery that’s donated by the Weyburn Pottery Club then posts a clue on their Facebook page. Today’s clue was a fill-in-the-blanks puzzle and with a bit of help from mom and dad, Sasha was able to recognize the clue matched the placard on this bench which led […]
