Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Cuba Libre! (March 2011)

This is the reminder that popped up on my work computer the day before we left for Cuba a few years back…

“Matthew tells us that Jesus and his family fled the wrath of Herod and were refugees in Egypt…” #canpoli #cndpoli

So it’s no secret that I’m an atheist. One of the many reasons I lost whatever inherited belief I had as a child growing up was seeing the wide range of hypocritical behaviours by (so-called) believers. I never saw the proverbial “stepping over the homeless person to get to the church on time” (or much worse).  But I did […]

Awesome Bike Jumps in Slow Motion

As mentioned in Sunday’s post about our recent camping highlights, here’s a video clip Pace basically compiled himself after I showed him the basics of using iMovie.  This includes adding sound effects, visual effects, trimming some of the clips, duplicating others and more. If you happen to have a Google/YouTube account, feel free to “Like” […]

Five Highlights From Two Weeks of Camping

Back from nearly two weeks’ straight of camping… We spent a week up at Good Spirit Provincial Park near Yorkton, had a few days back in Regina to re-stock over the August long weekend (very strange to be driving in to Regina as an endless stream of campers were heading out!)  We then went down […]

Gone Camping (again)

Posts will likely be few and far between until next week…

Friday Fun Link – Hilarious Booze Cruise Story

Not sure if I’ve ever posted this before but I’ve watched it numerous times. Always cracks me up by reminding me of some of the crazy stupid stories my friends and I tell each other about our own wild times in high school and college.

Gone Camping…

Likely no posts for most of the coming week as we’re going camping… …to the same campground where Shea was a bridesmaid in a beautiful wedding a couple summers ago!

Music Monday – “Uri Gagarin/Flew into the sun/The angels in heaven/Look down where he lay”

I think I posted this in a long ago Music Monday but heard it recently and felt the need to post it again. Such great memories of my undergrad exchange to England during the height of the Britpop/Cool Britannia years with a song that pretty much defines the “Britpop” sounds for me… “Angel Interceptor” – […]
