Throwback Thursday – #tbt – “When I Was Five, I Walked The Fence While Grandpa Held My Hand” (April 2012)
[At this time of year, I don’t know why I even bother trying to keep up my “a post a day” habit since we’re out at the lake every chance we get and since the Internet is crappy out there, I couldn’t post very easily, even if I wanted to. Then I get back and […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Grandparents at My Parents Wedding (October 1971)
Last week, I mentioned an aunt had given me a variety of old photos she’d scanned. Here’s a great one from my parents’ wedding featuring all four of my grandparents. So many thoughts and memories looking at this photo – the things my grandparents saw ranging from World Wars to Great Depressions; memories of various […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Grandpa Peet in Uniform (circa 1945?)
After missing the last couple years for obvious reasons, an aunt who visits us from Kelowna for a few weeks every spring is here now. One of her hobbies is genealogy and related, she likes to scan and catalogue old photos. She brought a thumb drive with hundreds of old family photos which means I’ll […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Lest We Forget (Grandpa Peet, circa 1944?)
My Grandpa Peet drove a tank in Holland during the war (Grandpa Hammond couldn’t enlist due to health reasons so he supported the war effort by continuing to farm back in Canada.) That’s why Remembrance Day is perhaps when I think of my Grandpa Peet more than any day of the year…the life he led, […]
A Few Random Thoughts From 2021 @Sask_NDP Virtual Convention
Shea and I signed up to attend the virtual Sask NDP convention this weekend. We’ve been to a handful of conventions over the years since our first in 2009 – mostly in years when there was a leadership vote but also as delegates from our constituency on occasion. (With that said, we’re not actively involved […]
Liveblogging the 2021 Canadian Federal Election #elxn44 #skpoli #canpoli #cndpoli
Okay, did this a couple elections ago for #Elxn42 but don’t think I did the last election. But no big plans tonight other than a stiff rye & ginger ale so let’s see what we can see… – get home from work at 6pm to see that the split is roughly Libs – 21, Con […]
Saturday Snap – Lessons From The Grandparents
Went out to Indian Head to help my parents celebrate their 49th anniversary and spend some time with them. Grandma Showing Sasha How To Make Waffles… Grandpa Teaching Pace How To Drive…
