Some Random Thoughts on Don McMorris’ Resignation #skpoli

Here’s a few random thoughts on yesterday’s resignation (from Cabinet but not as a sitting MLA) of Don McMorris, who was Saskatchewan’s Deputy Premier and (ironically) Minister Responsible for Sask Government Insurance (SGI) and Sask Liquor & Gaming Authority (SLGA). McMorris was apparently caught on his way back to Regina from Fort Qu’Appelle so unfortunately, it’s not […]

Saturday Snap – Gone Camping!

We’re off camping for the next couple weeks so posts will likely be few and far between…unless the kids end up building a really cute fort out of firewood and I have to post a picture! 😉

Throwback Thursday – Our New rPod182G Camper (August 2014)

Hard to believe we’ve already had our camper for three summers (well, two and a bit since we bought it near the end of the season three years ago.) We’ve had a lot of fun with it so far, travelled to parks across the province and after a quick trip out to Rowan’s Ravine last weekend […]

Saturday Snap – More From The Top of Regina

Here’s a few more shots from the TD Bank reception which we attended with my mom and dad on top of Regina’s new Hill Tower III Friday evening. Great three piece jazz band for entertainment… Panoramic of the view facing south… Wearing Rider green to a TD Bank reception serves a double purpose!

Friday Fun Link – The Tallest Building Between Winnipeg and Calgary

…and we were hanging out on top of it earlier tonight (though I know it’s hard to tell how high we are from the angle of this photo!)

Friday Fun Link – Getting Excited For @GarthBrooks in Saskatoon! #yxe

I’m not going to post a picture of Sasha running around the house naked in a cowboy hat but I can tell you that she’s not even going to the concert yet her parents’ excitement must be contagious. Mommy was singing and dancing in the kitchen, daddy dug through his old CDs to find the various […]

Music Monday – “Silent now but you used to laugh before”

In 1990, just before they got massive, The Tragically Hip played a small club in Regina called “The Venue”.  Someone put a video camera on one of the balconies in the club and has now posted some of this historically valuable footage. Here’s a clip of an unreleased early song called “Night Comes Down” (or “Night […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Dad and His Classic Car (early 1960’s?)

Usually for Throwback Thursday, I find a photo from sometime between 2006 (when I got my first digital camera) and now. But just like last week when I found a pic of Shea and her mom when Shea was quite young, I stumbled upon another older photo in my archives – my dad with what […]
