Music Monday – “This tiny space is all I need to live in/A simple life’s good for the soul/And I think I’m going to live in a boler/Tow it behind me wherever I go”

I used this song as part of a longer end-of-season montage after our first summer seasonal site three years ago but it deserves a post of its own. (Make sure you read the story about the singer from the Ovarian Cancer “Walk of Hope” page below – very tragic story for such a joyful song.) “Living […]

Saturday Snap – “God’s Lighting Rig” @reginafolkfest #rff19

We haven’t been to Regina Folk Fest for a few years since we got our RV and now tend to be camping every weekend in the summer. But since it was the RFF’s 50th Anniversary this year, we decided to cut camping short this weekend so we could catch at least part of the festival. […]

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 […]

Music Monday – “Raising hell with the hippies and the cowboys/They don’t care about no trends/They don’t care about songs that sell”

When we’re camping in Weyburn I can’t help but think how I’m basically the hippie surrounded by a big herd of cowboys. But the point of this song stands – people who seem to be opposites can still get along if they see their commonality in defining their own tastes without giving in to trends […]

(Belated) Saturday Snap – Disappointed I Didn’t Win The Canada Day Contest This Year

I can’t find a reference to it on my blog which is sort of surprising since I’ll take any validation I can get! But anyhow, last year, the campground we have a seasonal site had a Canada Day decorating contest and since we were new and wanted to make a good impression, we went all […]
