My Five “Go To” Camping Albums
Here are my default listening choices when camping… “Coyote” – Blake Berglund – our default summer album continues to be a fave this summer “Six Volts” – Fred Eaglesmith– my (current) favourite Fred Eaglesmith album “Traveller” – Chris Stapleton – last.fm says I listened to “From A Room Vol. 2” more but “Traveller” would’ve been my […]
Retro Friday Fun Link – “Can’t Tell The Kids About Those Days”
Some more backdated weekend posts just because…
Music Monday – “I used to spend my nights out in a barroom/Liquor was the only love I’ve known/But you rescued me from reachin’ for the bottom/And brought me back from being too far gone”

Music Monday – “We get to see the maple trees/Maple sugar on the maple leaves/We get the biggest wheat fields growing tall”
“CA-NA-DA (Cross Canada)” – Stomping Tom Connors w/ kd lang
