It created a pretty magical “snow globe” effect at the Heritage Classic last night, continued to fall through the night and it’s always a bit of a judgement call but it feels like it’s time to do my annual post of this song as it feels like the snow is here to stay again for […]

Saturday Snap – Ready To Head Out to the Heritage Classic!
Pretty cool experience to go to the Flames Heritage Classic game in Regina with my Calgary cousins and our dads.
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Go Flames Go (April 2004 Stanley Cup Run)
I’m super excited for the Heritage Classic outdoor NHL game (first regular season NHL game in a non-NHL city ever!) on Saturday night at Mosaic Stadium.

Definition of a Corporate Farm?
Interesting question on r/saskatchewan today – what’s the difference between a “family farm” and a “corporate farm” with a wide range of opinions being shared. For me, the main indicator of a “family farm” is any farm that has an owner who is a single individual (often including extended family members – a spouse, […]
