Life Is Better At The Lake!

Before we go away on any extended holiday, I usually post some sort of “Gone Camping/Gone Beaching” message to let people know I probably won’t be posting much. This time, I completely forgot to do that but I suspect any regular reader of this blog figured that’s probably what’s up if/when I drop off the […]

Music Monday – “You can travel all alone/You can travel all alone/Or you can come along with me”

Worked the weekend so had today off and decided to take the kids to spend the day in the Qu’Appelle Valley visiting the family cottage, practicing driving at the family farm, stopping for ice cream at Katepwa Beach, checking out main street in Fort Qu’Appelle. “Qu’Appelle” – Buffy Sainte Marie

Anyhow, I thought I’d post just a few highlights in a single post […]

Camping Countdown

Going camping for a couple weeks starting at the end of this week so likely won’t be doing daily posts since the Internet out there is pretty crappy. See you in August!

Saturday Snap – A Different Kind of Barn Raising?

Our next door neighbour at the lake showed up with a barn-shaped shed that he said was his Covid project with his kids (much more ambitious than *my* Covid quarantine project which was eating my body weight in chips and beer!) 😉 Anyhow, it was a huge job to get it placed, taking about ten […]
