Saturday Snap – “Meals That Make Your Mouth Dance”
We don’t consider ourselves “foodies” per se but Shea and I often talk about the restaurant meals we’ve had that “made our mouths dance”. This rarity happens when we find a combination of unique flavours from fresh ingredients created by great chefs. (Side note: highly recommend “The Bear” if you haven’t seen it.) A Korean […]
Gone Camping (Part Deux)
Posts will likely be sporadic to non-existent for the next couple weeks. (Sunset walks, on the other hand, will be plentiful!)
Saturday Snap – I’m On A Boat!
Had a really enjoyable time on Grandpa’s pontoon boat for a few hours on Saturday afternoon…
The Health Benefits of Camping
The points in this video are all very true about the benefits of camping – more exercise, fresh air, better sleep, less electronics, etc. etc. – but I could probably do a list of the reasons camping (at least how we do it) isn’t as healthy! From drinking Bailey’s with your morning coffee (and more […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Stoll-ley Cup? (August 2012)

Friday Fun Link – Saskatchewan Political Contribution Search Tool
Not sure how long this has existed but recently came across a tool that lets you search political donations to various parties in Saskatchewan (I think the cut-off for public disclosure is amounts $250 or over. So if you’re a manager and want to donate to the NDP or a union member who wants to […]
Throwback Thursday – Putting A Stamp On One Of My Most Memorable Library Moments (Sometime In Late 2021)
I’ve been fortunate to have all sorts of happy, sad, and memorable moments working in the library over the years. One of the most unique was helping a couple family members of Metis Leader, Harry Daniels, who fought to have his people included in the Canadian Constitution, come into the library to print a proof […]
