Throwback Thursday – Our New rPod182G Camper (August 2014)

Hard to believe we’ve already had our camper for three summers (well, two and a bit since we bought it near the end of the season three years ago.) We’ve had a lot of fun with it so far, travelled to parks across the province and after a quick trip out to Rowan’s Ravine last weekend […]

Pokemania!

So you have to be living under a rock to have not heard about the new augmented reality map-based game, Pokemon Go!. I first heard about it when it was all over Reddit, soon after its release in early July. I have to be honest – my first reaction was to ignore it as I thought of […]

Friday Fun Link – Getting Excited For @GarthBrooks in Saskatoon! #yxe

I’m not going to post a picture of Sasha running around the house naked in a cowboy hat but I can tell you that she’s not even going to the concert yet her parents’ excitement must be contagious. Mommy was singing and dancing in the kitchen, daddy dug through his old CDs to find the various […]

Gord Downie Taught Me To Dance: Memories of A Band That Defined Me and My Country

So I woke up today to the very sad news that Gord Downie, lead singer of the Tragically Hip, has terminal brain cancer. Obviously, as you age, it’s natural that your own heroes and icons will age ahead of you. But 2016 has been a rough year where we lost some top-shelf music icons – […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – World’s Biggest Tomato (April 2006)

When we lived in Ontario in 2006, Shea and I tried to get away to visit different nearby areas as often as we could. There’s been a lot of attention lately on French’s decision to start making ketchup in Canada using tomatoes from the Leamington, ON area after Heinz left the community high and dry in 2014. […]
