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 […]

First Snow of the Year (2022 Edition)

We had a dump a couple weeks ago but that disappeared and I think I’ve decided that this annual post will come the first day we have “snow that sticks” (and today’s Alberta clipper definitely seems that’ll be the case with a big storm blowing in overnight, some highways closed, buses stuck and people asking […]

Video of Multi-Vehicle Pileup in Pennsylvania (and My Most Scary Winter Drives)

This happened on Interstate 81 in Pennsylvania today pic.twitter.com/ONUUGOdtrH — ?_ Imposter_?

Although a lot rarer than I remember as a kid, this year’s accumulated snowfall (and […]
