10 Things That Make You A Bad Campground Guest

I did a list of “10 Things That Make You A Bad All-Inclusive Guest” previously so with a summer of camping slowly drawing to a close once again, I thought I’d do a similar list for camping (obviously, mostly to do with seasonal RV camping, not back country tenting which is a whole different ballgame!)… […]

Saturday Snap – Decorative Chair

Showed up at our campsite last weekend to find a neighbour had surprised us with a custom decorated chair that had been converted into a plant holder (plants courtesy Shea and her green thumb!)

Music Monday – “She misses Ragweed like I do/And her mom already thinks I’m trash/Along with her second stepdad too/She’s kind of weird and a full-time goon/Yeah, but she misses Ragweed like I do”

Can’t believe I’ve never posted this song before – so good! “Ragweed” – Koe Wetzel

A Few Camping Highlights

I briefly thought of backdating a bunch of photo posts, one for every day of our recent camping holiday but realised that’d be a lot of work (not to mention more evidence of my self-diagnosed OCD regarding my “must post daily” goal.) Anyhow, I thought I’d post just a few highlights in a single post […]

Music Monday – “I will swing my axe, don’t let the flames go down/Carve up some of that kindlin’/There’s plenty of wood around”

Back from a couple weeks’ camping and this song is running on repeat in my head, partly because my soft librarian hands suffered a few blisters from swinging an axe on occasion… “Axe” – The Steel Woods

Camping Countdown

Going camping for a couple weeks starting at the end of this week so likely won’t be doing daily posts since the Internet out there is pretty crappy. See you in August!

Saturday Snap – A Different Kind of Barn Raising?

Our next door neighbour at the lake showed up with a barn-shaped shed that he said was his Covid project with his kids (much more ambitious than *my* Covid quarantine project which was eating my body weight in chips and beer!) 😉 Anyhow, it was a huge job to get it placed, taking about ten […]

Coke-a-Knee?

When your son is a smart-ass, this is what you get when you ask him to bring you a Kokanee at the campsite…

Happy Father’s Day!

Nice to enjoy the day with my father and my son (who is modeling the robe I got as a Father’s Day gift)…

Saturday Snap – Just A Swingin’

The kids are both happy that playgrounds are finally open again but they also enjoy the convenience of the swing I rigged up right in our campsite!
