One of the first things allowed in Saskatchewan’s reopening plan is camping. We requested and got approved to move to a new site in the regional park where we have our seasonal site so have spent a couple weekends moving various sheds, storage bins, fridges and other supplies to our new site. Looking forward to […]
I don’t do warnings on this blog very often but I know the photo shows a dead animal and so may bother some people. You’ve been warned. So anyhow, we went out to Weyburn all day yesterday. Last fall, we applied for and received a transfer to a new seasonal campsite – bigger, closer to […]
Shea and I have tried to do regular video chats with various friends and family throughout this pandemic but last night, we decided to do something a bit different – instead of a sustained conversation with one person or group, we decided to try “chat roulette” where we’d message random people on our Facebook friend […]
When Sasha was decorating her birthday cake, I’m sure it was just an unfortunate oversight that she had enough letters to write “Unicorn” but not enough to write “Daddy”! 😉
Coronavirus is affecting us in ways big and small but one of the worst things is not being able to see the people you love in person anymore. So me and the kids threw together a “Virtual Birthday Card’ for Grandpa Ray as a placeholder until we get to see him in person! […]

At a time when people should be minimizing any activities that may result in a preventable trip to the hospital, Shea and I have mixed feelings about seeing Pace get his skateboard out now that spring seems to be here. Honestly, he’s pretty skilled and safe (notwithstanding how it looks due to the timely snap […]
From working on the Ryan Meili leadership campaigns, mostly in the area of social media plus my own personal interest in the topic, I know some of the “rules” about what makes tweets/Facebook posts successful. But ultimately, human nature is a funny thing and no one can truly predict what will make a tweet go […]
This was my view one week ago today. I admit that I was a bit nervous heading to the airport the next day as the Coronavirus seemed to blow up big (in news coverage if not actual cases) during out week in Mexico but our flight went ahead so, (un)fortunately, we weren’t stranded in Cancun! […]
Two drink-related posts in a row means I’m definitely on holidays! (Also had to commemorate that tequila shots were my wife’s idea tonight, not mine!!!) Some years I continue posting while on holidays and some years I don’t and I honestly have no idea if I’ll blog from Mexico or not but either way, hope […]
