New Southeast Regional Library (@srlhq) “Little Library” at Nickle Lake Regional Park

Can’t wait to check out (er, pun intended?) this little library out this weekend (and on a related note, I was hanging out with the new Weyburn Library Branch Head last weekend too.  Yep, I’m that cool!) 🙂 The “Beaver Den” is the park’s arts & craft shack but I’m still bitter that my entry […]

Weyburn, Sask Driving Tour

Not sure if I’d call it “best city to live” as this video claims but it’s where I spend most of my summer (well, at a nearby lake with occasional trips into town for groceries, booze and camping supplies) but it’s where my parents got married, my wife graduated high school, and my in-laws currently […]

Gone Camping

We’re off camping for a couple weeks so blog posts will likely be rare to non-existent during that time.

Saturday Snap – Old Man Row at the Grocery Store

You know you’re getting old when you go to to the “near beer” section of the grocery store and think, maybe I should try it? (Nah!) 😉

Note To Self: Important Things To Bring For Your First Weekend Opening The Campsite

This blog post is basically a “note to self” for next year as between closing up last year on a beautiful day which had us very distracted (I think Shea even went out on the boat with her folks for part of the day!), not doing a good job of tracking what was put into […]

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.
