Music Monday – “Time stand still/I’m not looking back/But I want to look around me now”
I’ve been into my branch a handful of times since it shut down three months ago. But as RPL has begun slowly reopening over the past couple weeks, today was my first day back in branch doing more traditional library work. This is because we’ve started having mid-sized and smaller branches in the RPL system […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Our First Dine-In Restaurant Meal in Three Months! (March 2020-June 2020)
Usually my “Throwback Thursday” posts go at least a few years back. But this one has me thinking of the past three months – from our last dine-in meal at the Houston Pizza near our house on Friday March 13 after we picked up the kids from what would be their last day of school […]
Saturday Snap – Our Oasis
Doing a lot of work in our new seasonal campsite (we were granted a move from a smaller site we were in other years to a bigger, better one) to make it relaxing and peaceful…
Five Reasons We’re Happy to Be Camping During COVID
As mentioned previously, Shea and I are looking forward to camping this summer as much as possible. Thinking about the Covid world we live in, there are a few reasons why we’re happy this is our hobby! If our summer plans included a trip to BC or Alberta or other out-of-province destinations, we’d have all […]
Thinking About That One Time A Cop Threatened To Beat Up Me and My Friends in High School
It’s obviously *very* different for myself as a middle-class white kid who grew up in a small town on the Canadian prairies compared to what’s happening to black people of all ages over and over again in cities across the US. But I had one particular experience in high school that showed me how easy […]
Saturday Snap – Our New Camper (2018 Forest River Cherokee Grey Wolf)
Shea and I had been tossing around the idea of upgrading to a bigger camper for a couple years but Covid sort of forced our hand this year. The initial restrictions for campgrounds included the fact that bathrooms would be closed and people would only be allowed to use their own camper’s facilities. Our rPod […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Coteau Books Board of Directors (January 2016)
I joined the board of Coteau Books in early 2012 but this photo of the board is from January 2016. Coteau entered bankruptcy earlier this year so this is from happier times and what happy times they were. During my many years on the Coteau board, I met such a wide range of great people […]
Saturday Snap – Camping Can’t Come Soon Enough
One of the first things allowed in Saskatchewan’s reopening plan is camping. We requested and got approved to move to a new site in the regional park where we have our seasonal site so have spent a couple weekends moving various sheds, storage bins, fridges and other supplies to our new site. Looking forward to […]
