Music Monday – “Darkness falls across the land/The midnight hour is close at hand/Creatures crawl in search of blood/To terrorize your neighbourhood”

When this video debuted in 1983, I was ten years old.  I stayed up late on a Friday night to watch it with my Aunt Sandi on Good Rockin’ Tonight (which has a strange Regina connection.) I think I made it through about two minutes before I started crapping my pants and hiding my head […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Our Next Trip Is Booked

We’ve had a lot of trips in the interim but we haven’t been to Mexico since 2004.  But we’re about to correct that – we just booked our next winter trip!

Ten Reasons Our Recent Camping Trip Was Perhaps Our Best Ever

We’re back from a week and a half of camping – one week at Greenwater Provincial Park and then, after a quick night in Regina, another few days at Shea’s parents’ seasonal site in Weyburn. Both parts were great but Shea and I agreed that the week in Greenwater was maybe our best camping trip […]

Saturday Snap – Gone Camping!

We’re off camping for the next couple weeks so posts will likely be few and far between…unless the kids end up building a really cute fort out of firewood and I have to post a picture! 😉

Throwback Thursday – Our New rPod182G Camper (August 2014)

Hard to believe we’ve already had our camper for three summers (well, two and a bit since we bought it near the end of the season three years ago.) We’ve had a lot of fun with it so far, travelled to parks across the province and after a quick trip out to Rowan’s Ravine last weekend […]

Music Monday – “Yes, we’re going to a party-party/Yes, we’re going to a party-party”

I’ve had this blog for ten years and my actual birthday has fallen on a “Music Monday” only once in 2009 when I naturally posted…“Paranoid Android” by Radiohead? Maybe I did this because only a couple years earlier in 2009, I fudged things and posted “Birthday” by the Beatles on the Monday before my birthday […]

Music Monday – “Time to say goodbye to countries I never saw and shared with you, now, yes, I shall experience them.”

Happy Fourth of July! Fireworks filmed from a drone – very cool… “Con te partirò (Time To Say Goodbye)” – Andrea Bocelli

Saturday Snap – Canada Day Picnic

Enjoying the Canada Day celebrations at Wascana Park…

Friday Fun Link – How To Be Canadian

Happy Canada Day, eh?

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Crashing Waves at the Witches Brew, Hanauma Bay, Oahu, Hawaii (Winter 2002)

This is a great shot (though possibly not the smartest thing to do) of Shea and I from our first trip to Hawaii…
