One thing you do get is to see a bunch of interesting stuff when you’re on the road. This gent was operating the espresso machine at a coffee shop on the road called “Deadwood Junction and Tarnished Turkey Cappuccino Bar”, one of my favourite haunts while en route to Kelowna or back home from a visit to my grandson.
Ever have one of those days where you seem to be just a little out of phase with the rest of humanity, where the best laid plans seem to go astray? A day where after breakfast you put the milk in the cupboard and the cereal in the fridge. I’m experiencing that today. It’s seems …
I am here, but not. Wanting but not having. Feeling but not saying. Alone but not lonely. – me It’s been some time since my last post. This sounds suspiciously like the preamble to a confession, where I enter the confessional and spill my sordid deeds to the priest. Tisn’t though. First off I’m not …
I braved the din again today, marched along the highway against the onslaught of rushing traffic. I guess you could say I was walking into traffic, as opposed to walking into the path of oncoming traffic, a distinct difference. Unfortunately it was like most other walk days, there is a section of my stroll where …
I’m back on the mainland staying at my daughters and my first annual sunshine coast tour is finished. I’m pooped and ready for a holiday. The reviews are mixed but generally I’d have to consider the party a success. I took lots of photos with both my iPhone and camera and have yet to download, …

I love the water, sunsets, and beauty. It’s great when they all come together in one spot. I found them doing that tonight. I’ve completed my visits with family and friends and my time is now my own. I had hoped to make it further along the traveling path I envisioned but for all the …
Our time in Kelowna, this time around, is done. We hung out with the kids, I took a couple walks, we bonded with our grandson, and certainly the highlight (for my wife anyway) was the Cirque Quidam show on Saturday night. It was a great show but my back rebelled part of the way through …
We are beginning the second leg of our trips now. We finished one tour of camping duty and have gone back out to battle the roads again. Yesterday and the day before give us a chance to get caught up on laundry, pick up a few supplies, and take care of one or two personal …
Time is flying by, and I know not where it’s gone. I only wish I could recapture it, experience it again. We have been camping or on the road now since July 6th and I haven’t journaled or blogged since then. Actually that is not totally correct, I blogged about Madden on the 7th. Shows …
