I missed posting yesterday since we were camping and my cell data was close to going over so I was trying to minimize anything I did online (er, some would point out that’s probably a good approach to camping in general!) 😉 Anyhow, by not posting a Saturday Snap, I ended up taking a great […]
Reddit, which has just undergone its first redesign in a decade, recently passed Facebook as the third most trafficked site in the United States. Being able to find any kind of timely information you want – for example, ideas for some new music to listen to at your campsite – is a big part of why […]
Our annual visit from my Aunt Sandi, who stays with us for a few weeks around Pace’s birthday each year, is over for another year. It was another great visit with lots of laughs, great conversations, delicious meals and we even survived having windows installed in our guest room while Sandi was here. See you next […]
Should’ve called it “The Escape Castle“? What I imagine a Scottish princess would say… And of course, haggis!
I had the day off so decided to pop out to Congress at the U of R. It was a great day going through the Exhibitors’ Hall catching up with some publishers I knew from my days in that world, meeting some new publishers, talking to authors and so on. Since I rarely get out […]

It’s going to be hard to top how well everything – weather, neighbours who had kids around our kids’ ages, view – worked out at our seasonal site last year. But having spent the May long weekend at our seasonal site at Nickle Lake Regional Park, we’re off to a pretty good start! Shea’s Parents […]

We didn’t get a fire ban until the end of summer last year. But it’s been crazy dry the last couple years so here we go right at the start of the camping season (and yes, the regional park we’re booked into won’t escape without a fire ban either until some rain comes.) 🙁 Thank goodness […]
For the upcoming summer, we weren’t sure whether we’d end up camping at a provincial park like we did last year or if we’d switch to a regional park. Both have advantages and disadvantages but with Shea’s mom undergoing cancer treatment, it made our decision to go to Nickle Lake Regional Park where her folks have […]
