Retro Saturday Snap – Prairie Sunset

When my wrist is healed and I’m up to typing longer pieces again, I’m hoping to write a long percolating post about how the Sask NDP can make in-roads in rural Saskatchewan. But until then, had a great visit at Shea’s aunt and uncle’s on Saturday night…

Happy Father’s Day!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – On National Caesar Day, Is This The Best Wedding Ever? (Summer 2017, Somewhere in Ontario)

Like most good Canadians, I enjoy a good caesar. And since it’s National Caesar Day, I’m going to break from Throwback Thursday tradition and instead of posting one of my own pictures of me drinking a caesar or making a caesar or looking lovingly at a caesar on a restaurant table, I wanted to post an awesome […]
