Sunset (or Sunrise?)

My last post was August 21 when I said I was going to try to get back to (roughly) daily blog posts after a summer of holidays and other distractions. Then I promptly didn’t post again for nearly two more weeks until today. Lots I could write, lots of navel-gazing about why I (still) have […]

Music Monday – “It’s been too long since we took the time/No-one’s to blame/I know time flies so quickly”

Not a lot of blogging this summer due to holidays and other things occupying my mind. But time to start over with trying to do (mostly) daily posts (he says posting a Music Monday post on Tuesday morning!) “(Just Like) Starting Over” – John Lennon

Saturday Snap – Glow Float

The Kayak Club at Nickle Lake where we camp recently had their first-ever “Glow Float” fundraiser where you could rent a kayak or stand-up paddle board (or bring your own), decorate it with glow sticks and then take it out for an hour late on a Sunday night. We were going to do it but […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – 20 Years of Seasonal Camping (2003-2023)

Back from our most recent camping stretch but bittersweet as my inlaws decided to pull the pin after twenty years of seasonal camping. (This has been coming for awhile but still tough that the moment finally arrived.) So much of our week away was watching as they listed (and sold) their camper, packed up everything […]

I’m Still Alive!

No, Shea didn’t finally get tired of being married to me and drown me. We’ve been camping for much of July (in a campground that has really crappy LTE service that, on balance, I find to be a good thing – though Sasha managing to sneak the password for the $80/month wifi the neighbours pay […]

Saturday Snap – “Get A Dog” They Said, “It’ll Be Fun” They Said.

Also, this is an (attempted) picture of me walking the dog at four in the morning when camping this weekend. (He doesn’t get up often in the middle of the night but when he does at home, at least we can send him out the back door into our fenced yard instead of going for […]

Saturday Snap – Sasha’s Birthday Sleepover

Booked Sweet Dreamz Slumber, a local company that sets up tents with lights, banners, serving trays outside the tent, a ceiling light show device and more for Sasha’s 10th birthday party sleepover. Was cool to have them arrive one-by-one and go downstairs to hear things like: “Oh. My. God.”, “This is AMAZING!”, “So cool”.
