10 Reasons We Love Camping

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 […]

Saturday Snap – A Glimpse of Our Future?

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 […]

Secular Sunday – Atheist Summer Camp

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 […]

Five Things I Love The Most About Our rPod 182G

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 […]

Music Monday – “I’ve been drinkin’ to remember and drinkin’ to forget/I got “I love you” on my mind, I got Jim Beam on my breath”

  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 […]

Camping Wrap-Up

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 […]

Camping Conclusion

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 […]

Camping Quest

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 […]

Camping Campaigning

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! 😉

Camping Kite

Spent an incredibly relaxing day at a different lake about half an hour from the one at our campground.
