Ten years ago this weekend, Shea and I gathered in her hometown of Creelman with ~150 friends and family to celebrate our marriage. Her Maid of Honour was her lifelong friend, Janelle. How fitting then that Shea was a bridesmaid this weekend for Janelle, who married her longtime partner Ben at the scenic Sherwood Forest […]

Saturday Snap – Nickle Lake Hail Storm

Spent the weekend at Shea’s parents’ seasonal camp site at Nickle Lake.  Had a bit of an adventure as there were tornado warnings on Saturday afternoon. (When Pace was a baby and we found ourselves in similar circumstances, we headed for town.  I often joke about “Second Baby Syndrome” and Sasha suffered it here as […]
