Throwback Thursday – #tbt – I Wonder What Their Tourism Slogan Is? (February 2008)

Given our province’s recent track record, “Access One” would probably be good enough and they wouldn’t even need to make a new sign!

Music Monday – “Experience Regina” (Well, It Was An Experience To Be in Regina This Weekend Anyhow!)

“Experience Regina” Parody (Watch It To See Some of Regina’s “Highlights”) You may have heard that Tourism Regina recently rebranded. It started with a teaser clip and message on social media at the start of March: It’s All Happening… Let’s push the narrative; the same old is boring. Our city is changing, and that means […]

Saturday Snap – “Do you need a campaign volunteer who has helped candidates win at least 10% of the campaigns he’s worked on?”

Chief Cadmus Delorme of Cowessess First Nation is one of, if not the most, high profile Indigenous leaders in Saskatchewan for his work in business, child welfare and much more.  (Unfortunately, part of his high profile,including an interview for CBS’s “60 Minutes” show, is for very tragic reasons.) Above is a pic of myself and […]

Saturday Snap – Pretty Good Spot for @Frost_ReginaSK Fireworks!

Pace has been working at some Pats’ games to earn money for a school trip. We signed him up for the Saturday game not thinking that it would be Frost Festival at REAL but luckily I popped into the Exhibition Grounds on Friday night on the way to supper with some friends and realised that […]

Music Monday – “Cause if summer is here/I’m still waiting there/Winter is here/And I’m still waiting there”

I have many fond memories of regularly going to the Ness Creek Music Festival, a hippie festival in Northern Saskatchewan, when I was in my twenties. I can’t remember their name but one moment of perfection was a band I’d never heard of but that ended up being a reggae band who brought a little […]

Friday Fun Link – Sask Regional Park Sets Record For Longest Line of Water Inflatables

Hopefully the regional park we camp at tries to break this record that was recently set by another park in Saskatchewan. I know we’ve been practicing for this moment for years…    

RPL Stories: John

I’ve said it before but #RPLStories is easily the best marketing campaign the library I work for has ever done (they’re focused on patron stories so I’m not just saying that because I have a cameo in one of them!) 😉 I knew his story already (likely from his own #RPLStory) but had a lengthy […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – No Covid, No Covid! (January 2022, March 2021)

The good old days when I could mock Covid by making a giant “C” out of our family’s negative tests back in January of this year… …and even earlier in March 2021 which is when Shea was first able to get Covid rapid tests through her work to be used for herself and her family […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Camp Hope (October 2021)

Just over a year ago in mid-October, I saw a friend post on social media that a tent city was being set up in Pepsi Park in Regina and looking for donations. We had an extra tent so I took it down and briefly spoke to some of the organizers (including my friend by phone […]

Agribition Supervision

With my criminal record check approved, I was off to be a parent chaperone for Sasha’s class visit to Agribition today. (Good thing it was approved as I had a few moments of “Oh-oh – that’ll get you on a list!” during the day – from accidentally leaving the house with my fly down to […]
