Sorry about the delay getting this most compelling post up. The downside to deferring is I must rely on my memory even more. That’s a recipe for poetic licence! Sleeping in a parking lot in Levis was quite peaceful. As the morning broke, I remained completely silent until 08:00 and then headed out for my…
Or, we’re gone? It has been a year since our last significant van trip. This summer we did some short excursions using the van as a base for some fun bicycle (Brompton, of course) rides along the St Lawrence river. But alas, time to get moving on our annual fall trip. This one is slightly…
Where to begin? We Milddogs ordered our van in October of 2020 and took delivery April 13, 2021 (same day we got our first COVID vaccine). When borders opened up we embarked on a 6 week adventure down through the states with our destination being Arizona. We called this the AFY Tour. AFY is an…
Disclaimer: This is not an indepth review of the concert. There are thousands of those out there. There are just as many live streams you can watch. So put on your google gloves and type away if that is what you seek. Let’s go way back. Imagine it’s over a decade ago. Cellular data is…
You may have inferred by the way I clench my jaw as I type the “word” ebike, that I think they are and will be an important part of our human story to lessen our need for cars. Perhaps extend our ability to explore and slow down. But I don’t have an ebike, yet. When…
Offspring #2 had been taking care of the house, and that included turning the pool heater back on so we could extend the season with all of the wonderful warm weather our home location had for the last week. So we were on a mission today. Get up, hit the road and enjoy the day…
T’was a foggy morning as I ventured out on my walk. I planned to take some of the paths and get back after 3.5km or 30 minutes as we were on a schedule. Along the way I found what my bonafide outdoorsman cousin thinks are wolf tracks. Whilst I was away, Mrs Milddogs spotted a…
Things I forgot yesterday (Sept 15th): Happy birthday, Heather. Been a while, let’s chat! Well hello there! We awoke to many fog horns sounding (vessels have to sound every two minutes in fog conditions). Today began with a lovely walk exploring the forbidden areas of this campground. Fun fact, the boundary of this private campground…
For this morning walk I ventured out of the day care (oh, sorry, I meant campground) and over to the municipal park that, in addition to the police HQ and the fire department, hosts a beautiful lookout. I then hit the local neighbour hood inconveniently (for the residents) close to the campground but more importantly…
Omissions from yesterday. I dumped the holding tanks and remained 100% faeces free. It’s rather inconvenient to dump tanks here. You have to go to the office and get a physical key to unlock the cap. I don’t want to do a culture on that key. I also learned that taunting Buffalo Bills fans is…
