Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Drop Everything And Read, Regina Coronation Park (April 2017) #skpoli

By most accounts, Sask Party MLA Mark Docherty was a decent dude. I know I always enjoyed my interactions with him – when he would come to the library I was working at for events or programs or when I would bump into him at community events or whatever. Given his background and resume, I’ve […]

Saturday Snap – Camping Season Is Coming

Yesterday I posted about spring seeding and today I’m posting a picture the in-laws sent of our camp site – has it been a long winter or what?

My Childhood Best Friend Wins $55 Million! (Well, A Guy I Kinda Sorta Remember Anyhow)

Okay, maybe he wasn’t my childhood best friend but he was somebody from my hometown whose family and mine did do stuff together occasionally before they moved to BC. But I should back-up… I still distinctly remember a conversation when I worked for the Sask Publishers Group around 20 years ago when we were chatting […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – The Greatest Saskatoon Blade of All-Time (March 2015)

Sasha and I got to meet Wendel Clark at “Hometown Hockey” in Regina back in 2015. (Even had a funny exchange with a hero from my childhood.) Kinda funny that his junior numbers weren’t amazing (he’s no Connor Bedard, that’s for sure!) but I suspect it was actually his PIM which helped him go first […]

Connor Bedard Is Having An All-Time Season

This article is from mid-March but it’s still amazing how dominant Connor Bedard has been and what a privilege it’s been that he’s playing in Regina so I’ve been able to see him play a few times. Draft-eligible seasons: • McDavid (47GP) – 44G, 120PTS• Bedard (47GP) – 59G, 123PTS He’s 7 months younger. He […]
