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.
