Back From Camping (and Five “Redneck” Moments)

Eternal optimist that I am, I keep saying that Covid has had some unintended benefits. One of those is because we couldn’t do a winter trip this year, it also meant we had more holidays to take in the summer – two weeks in July but also two weeks in August which we don’t usually […]

Music Monday – “He’s brown as a berry from ridin’ the prairie/And he sings with an ol’ western drawl/Ooh-ooh-ooh-doo-di-di/Singing his cattle call”

“Cattle Call” – Eddy Arnold RIP Lloyd Thompson (1942-2021)

Gone Camping

We’re off camping for a couple weeks so blog posts will likely be rare to non-existent during that time.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – RPL Photo Shoot (June 2011)

Feel like I might’ve posted a pic from this photo shoot before but still love it (and believe it or not, I still have that shirt though it’s migrated from “suitable for a casual photo shoot” to “wear it camping while sitting around the fire, may have a few burn holes”!)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Canada Day In Happier Times (July 2008)

Three years ago, I was placing second in our campground’s annual “Canada Day Decorating” contest. This year? Don’t really feel like decorating too much (though I did have a few ideas to subvert the contest but couldn’t find 751 orange helium balloons in time!) 🙁 At the risk of sounding like somebody on /r/entlightenedcentrism, I’m […]

Music Monday – “Every night, I say a prayer/In the hopes that’s there’s a Heaven.”

I don’t think Pace has a theme song for his grade eight grad today. In my hometown, I went to elementary school until grade six then to high school in grade seven and I didn’t have a grade six grad theme song either (that I remember.). But it’s got me thinking back to my own […]
