After last week’s post (cat…paper clip…of course you remember), I felt compelled to write a post that suggests a more optimistic message. While home in Forest last long weekend I snuck a snap of the back of my Jeep with its crooked smile of a tire...

It’s not very often I have a bad day. Once every year, so really I’m lucky. However (which is just a fancy word for but…) this whole week was CRAPPY! So, when my dear cat took on my favourite paper clip with a vengeance yesterday, I had to capture...

When on business trips, it is rare that I get a chance to really take in the sites. That’s a good thing! It means I’m busy and that is always good. However, on a recent trip to Saskatoon, I had 45 minutes of pure bliss one sunny morning. I was staying...

I am finally at home for a day and can empty my various memory cards to see what’s on them. This past month has been such a whirlwind of travel…Saskatoon, Regina, Ottawa, London and tomorrow, Vancouver. It’s been so busy I wasn’t really sure...
