Our New rPod 182g Ultralight RV

Shea and I had a pretty expensive visit to Indian Head earlier this summer. We went to the splash park and happened to bump into some friends who were back from Calgary for a few days.  In the course of talking to them, they told us they’d just bought a new rPod camper. We’d seen one […]

Music Monday – “Ouzo!”

I remember seeing the New Zealand band, Hobnail Boots (now known as “Hobnail“) when they played the Ness Creek Festival during a cross-Canada tour, maybe in the mid-1990’s?
