After last week’s post thinking back to the last time I think I traveled to the US, I thought it’d be fun to also highlight what was probably my favourite US trip ever for another “Throwback Thursday” post. I was very fortunate to have parents who loved traveling and growing up, I got to travel […]
Not sure what it means when you’re getting music recommendations from your mother-in-law but that’s how I first heard of this singer who also happens to be an RN that my mother-in-law worked with prior to her retirement. Also important to note that this video has some scenes shot at Nickle Lake Regional Park where […]
With the Canada-US border closed for the foreseeable future, I was trying to figure out the last time I went to the States. For awhile there in the early 2010’s, I’d say we ended up going about once or twice a year, either to Williston which is just over the border or Minot, which is […]
Pretty different “back to school” photo this year – masks being the most obvious change but also missing the tree in our old front yard that was the backdrop for “first day of school” photos since Pace started kindergarten (since we still live in the neighbourhood, I suggested taking the kids there for a stealth […]
Technically I took this photo yesterday but we spent most of the weekend at our seasonal campsite cleaning up after another great year so I’m counting it as my “Saturday Snap” photo this week…
Before we go away on any extended holiday, I usually post some sort of “Gone Camping/Gone Beaching” message to let people know I probably won’t be posting much. This time, I completely forgot to do that but I suspect any regular reader of this blog figured that’s probably what’s up if/when I drop off the […]
Worked the weekend so had today off and decided to take the kids to spend the day in the Qu’Appelle Valley visiting the family cottage, practicing driving at the family farm, stopping for ice cream at Katepwa Beach, checking out main street in Fort Qu’Appelle. “Qu’Appelle” – Buffy Sainte Marie
I did a list of “10 Things That Make You A Bad All-Inclusive Guest” previously so with a summer of camping slowly drawing to a close once again, I thought I’d do a similar list for camping (obviously, mostly to do with seasonal RV camping, not back country tenting which is a whole different ballgame!)… […]
Now that we’ve been going out more for shopping, staying in our seasonal campsite since the start of June, I’ve been back to work for over a month, and we’ve even been brave enough to eat at a couple restaurants (only patios though, not inside!), I thought it might be interesting to think about who’s […]
Going camping for a couple weeks starting at the end of this week so likely won’t be doing daily posts since the Internet out there is pretty crappy. See you in August!
