Good morning Cafe! Thanks for the coffee! A cloudy misty one today in the Pacific Northwest. Still no frost yet this fall.
I'm so sorry about the pup. That is a really hard thing to go through.
We are trying to nurse our 28-year-old pony back to health - he has laminitis and a few other health...
Good Morning Cafe!
Quiet, dark and a bit wet here in B.C., but it's another day in the office finishing some things that are due! No sun in the forecast for at least another week and a half, so I'm leaving to find some. Well, off to a conference, but it happens to be in a nice warm and sunny...
I'm still alive! Life has just been absolutely nuts... I am sorry for my absence again. I will have to try better the next little bit.
I have a lot to catch up on here! If I can just survive this week... lots of work deadlines and then I'm off to a conference (the first one in quite a while)...
Good afternoon Cafe! Happy Birthday Penny!
Drove from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia to Lower Mainland, British Columbia in 73 hours. Some kind of crazy. Canadian version of the Cannon Ball Run (except we didn't exceed the speed limit to try to do it faster... haha). 😄 Never want to do that again...
Good afternoon everyone! Packing up for a second long drive across the country! Bringing the last of DHs stuff west along with his truck. It's a hot one out there unfortunately and I think I have a sciatic flare, but I shall survive.
Was out with whales yesterday again and it was so nice to see...
Good afternoon everyone! Surviving here - things are looking a little brighter thankfully after a rough 48 hrs.
DL, I really hope this surgery helps a lot. I'm sure it's very scary, but these things are usually what is needed (otherwise they wouldn't have recommended it to you!).
Good morning Cafe! Thanks for the coffee.
I've come down with a bad bug. Was mild until yesterday morning and then took a turn for the worse. No voice, lots of coughing and fever are back. Hydrate and sleep will be the name of the game again today, with hopes that it starts to get better soon.
Hi Everyone! Back from a few more adventures with family.
This week has been a mixture of great (lots of whales, relatives visiting from the Netherlands) and horrifying (many forest fires in western Canada, now the loss of much of the town of Jasper, AB last night).
Here are a few pictures...
Thank you! It’s an amazing world out there. I’m equal parts thrilled that it’s out of the reach of many and sad those who are responsible don’t get a chance to see it.
Good afternoon everyone! Back on the map. A lot has happened on my end and I’m sure I’ll have a lot of catching up to do here as well.
In summary:
I was out to sea for two weeks in a 40ft sailboat looking for whales 100Nm offshore (not far from where the Andrea Gail was lost in the Perfect...
Good Morning Cafe! Thanks for the coffee.
Sorry about the ring around DL. Sounds very frustrating…
The temps are beautiful here, but I’m flying to the east coast on Tuesday and it’s going to be an awful heatwave there too for this early in the year. Don’t have access to AC there, so things...
Good morning Cafe! Thanks for the coffee DL!
It's a bit drizzly this morning, but not enough that I won't have to water the garden again this evening - we should get more tomorrow! I had the best sleep I've had in a week or so last night, hoping for more over the weekend. Busy organizing the...
Good morning Cafe! Thanks for the coffee!
It's a grey morning here, but good for the garden. Less than a week until I fly back to Nova Scotia! Unfortunately that means less than a week until I have to have my thesis in order. Haha.
DL, I hope that this referral will be helpful for you!
