Wow – never realised that the head of CloudFlare is from Saskatchewan For the record, Zatlyn’s stake in Cloudflare, based on its market capitalization of $28 billion, amounts to over $1 billion. That’s ‘one’ with nine zeros after it. We’re in a binary digital world but that one and all those zeros mean so much […]
It’s a long way from the stage of the “Cancer Jamboree” at Nickle Lake outside Weyburn (where we’ve camped for years and now have our own seasonal campsite) to the American Country Music Top 20 airplay charts… “Somebody Like That” – Tenille Arts
We had a bit of a surprise waiting for us when we opened our front door after the big snow/wind storm earlier this week. In fact, pretty much our whole house was caked in snow like this – pretty cool effect – almost like living in a snow globe!
As Saskatchewan adds more restrictions, mostly on retailers in the post-Christmas period, I’m thinking a lot about how everyone is somewhere different on what I think of as the “Covid Continuum”.

I keep looking at old pictures and thinking about how much has changed due to Covid. Here’s another example: – more than 30 people gathered – dancing – singing – drinking – communal meal – close together – no masks On and on…
With the announcement of stronger Covid restrictions for Saskatchewan, just in time for Christmas, this song has been going through my head non-stop… “Just Me and These Ponies (For Christmas This Year)” – Corb Lund
Earlier this summer, we heard that Shea’s cousin’s herd of bison had gotten out and were in a nearby farmer’s field. We knew that previously when only one animal had gotten out, her uncle had been able to guide him back into the pasture using a front-end loader tractor he used to feed them which […]
Going through some old papers, I came across this recommendation letter from the Sask Library Association Executive Director. If this letter didn’t make it clear, I’ve always felt a strong connection to libraries, loved getting to work for the province’s library association and, only five short years later, I’d be off to library school to […]
