As we begin the sad process of closing up our seasonal site for another year, it feels like a good time to do a list of the reasons Shea and I enjoy camping so much: We both camped lots with our own parents growing up so we know how it can create amazing memories for […]
Shea and I really enjoying the camping lifestyle and, although it’s still a few years away, have begun talking about what it would be like to downsize our house and buy a small camper/motorhome/camper van and just travel around in that once we retire. We got a glimpse of what it might be like this […]
As summer comes to an end, I thought this video was appropriate for a Secular Sunday post (and yes, it’s a Christian making fun of atheists for a change!) The gist of the guy’s bit is what kids would learn at an Atheist Summer Camp and the irony is that Shea and I frequently lament […]
Hard to believe we’ve had our 2012 rPod for five years now having bought it used during summer 2014. Through the first couple years of pulling it around the province, one year in a provincial seasonal site and the last couple in a regional park, I continue to feel like we made an awesome decision […]
I posted a Cody Jinks song before I went on holidays so why not post another Jinks’ song since it was in the top three of my most listened to songs over the past couple weeks (with the other two – “Cumberland Gap” by Jason Isbell and “Tear Stained Eye” by Son Volt both […]
It’s weird how time can sometimes seem so slow (when you’re lazing through most days with some tunes, a good book and tasty beers) and at the same time, so fast (when you have a two week holiday that feels like it only lasted two days.) We had a great two weeks camping with lots […]
It was a great way to end our final full day of our camping holiday as the campground where we have our seasonal site had planned a “Summer Fun Party” for Saturday August 3 featuring a free pancake breakfast, a show & shine car show, a slo-pitch tournament and beer garden with live music throughout […]
Every Friday, our campground hides a piece of pottery that’s donated by the Weyburn Pottery Club then posts a clue on their Facebook page. Today’s clue was a fill-in-the-blanks puzzle and with a bit of help from mom and dad, Sasha was able to recognize the clue matched the placard on this bench which led […]
Got to a summer BBQ hosted by Weyburn NDP constituency association and joked to NDP Leader, Ryan Meili that with all the money Shea and I donate to the NDP, we’ll go to any event they have to recoup our money in free hot dogs! 
Spent an incredibly relaxing day at a different lake about half an hour from the one at our campground.
