Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Button Maker (November 2013)

Full-on riding the Riders bandwagon the last time they were in the Grey Cup Final!

Saturday Snap – How Sad Is It…

…that the free evening skate time at a local arena has about a million times more diversity than our recently re-shuffled Provincial cabinet which isn’t exactly “From Many Peoples Strength”?

Saturday Snap – Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer?

Somewhat fitting that a random gentleman was handing out free homemade reindeer carvings at a local pub/Regina institution where I’ve drank enough (rein)beer over the years to turn my nose *very* red.  (Only drank Diet Coke this visit though.)

Friday Fun Link – Biggest Global Industries By Revenue (2025)

Yes, I was inspired to look up the world’s biggest global industries after seeing a reference to the global reach of the oil & gas sector which isn’t the biggest but has the biggest impact on every other sector in the TV show, “The Landman”. Although its set in Texas and obviously a lot more […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Jan Lake Lodge (July 2014)

With the wildfires burning in northern Saskatchewan (and really, across much of Canada’s north), I can’t help but think of the handful of times I’ve been able to travel to the north of the province for vacations or even work. This was a fishing trip we did with Shea’s family in 2014.

Saturday Snap – Smokey Moon

The extreme northern wildfires have brought a blanket of smoke to the south part of the province creating some eerie and stunning visuals including this crescent-shaped blood moon…  

Saturday Snap – Above Ground Pool

My brother-in-law and his wife (and their young son who saved his money to help contribute!) got an above ground pool for their acreage which is halfway between where we camp at Nickle Lake and Weyburn. Still too cold for me but Sasha and her cousin were brave enough to try it out.  Will be […]
