Saturday Snap – More My Speed?

Our neighbour built a small ramp to help him move a new appliance in his house. Once he was finished with it, he brought it over and offered it to Pace (but I think he secretly meant it for me in case I ever decide to do a bike jump again!) And speaking of the […]

Mankind and Undertaker Discuss Their Iconic Hell in a Cell Match

WWE’s “Hell in a Cell” Pay Per View is tonight with multiple matches being held in the imposing, over-sized cage. But twenty years ago, HiaC matches were much more rare and that made them much more special. The third ever HiaC match between Undertaker and Mankind had not one, not two but three iconic spots […]

I Don’t Want To Brag Or Anything…

…but our entry in the “Decorate for Canada Day” contest at Nickle Lake actually inspired the judges to add and award a second place prize (hat *and* t-shirt, baby!) after they couldn’t decide between ours and the people who ended up winning first place (folding chair *and* folding table).

Saturday Snap – Customized Rider Jersey

We weren’t allowed into the Riders’ locker room (only the Visitors’ locker room) but we did get to take a family photo in front of the […]
