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”!)

Saturday Snap – Campfire Reading

Love to see Sasha using a headlamp to keep reading by the campfire after the sun goes down…

Secular Sunday – Shining A Light

Powerful image of 751 solar lights during a vigil to recognize the children found in unmarked graves at Cowessess First Nation…

Saturday Snap – Second Shot

Now to just get kids under 12 authorized to be vaccinated…

Saturday Snap – Happy Father’s Day!

Everybody in this photo has two doses of vaccine (except our teen who has one and our kid who isn’t eligible yet.) Feels really good to get close together on the couch for a family picture before a delicious steak supper!
