Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Echo Lake Summer (Summer 2017)

A video I cut of the many highlights of the first year we had a seasonal camp site at Echo Lake Provincial Park.  A year of Covid really makes you appreciate all these little moments – having various family and friends to our campsite, shared meals, laughs around the campfire, sleepovers, meeting random strangers.

Music Monday – “So while you sit back and wonder why/I got this fucking thorn in my side/Oh my God, it’s a mirage/I’m tellin’ y’all, it’s a sabotage”

Shea and I recently watched the Beastie Boys documentary on AppleTV+ and really enjoyed it. “Sabotage” – Beastie Boys

I’ll likely share some expanded […]
