Gym Farm Neighbourhood

A busy day at the gym… out to the farm…. and back in town for dinner at our new favourite pub. The walk today was around the block – M and I are both exhausted and are looking forward to a cup of tea, TV, and snuggling up on the couch.

Hunt for Provisions

14 blocks in the neighbourhood.  Ended up at Wild Earth and picked up two of the best steaks we’ve ever eaten. Of course, this was after cooking, just in case you thought we picked them up and ate them there in the store. One does need to be careful these days in what they say.

Save On Foods

You know you get those little key tags that the cashiers zap and you miraculously save money? Well, because I’m driving a rental car, I don’t carry my regular keys with me. The keys with the Save On tag. I didn’t even consider it until I was in line, and I looked desperately at the…

Beer Beer Beer

A very long haul in the walking world today. Departed Canada Place, west along Jasper, south on 107th Street, through the Legislative grounds, across the High Level bridge, and West into the Sugar Bowl.

12 Blocks

I’ve been frustrated with my shoulder pain and exercise has been recommended, and other than walking I’ve not seen…

Lawn Bowling Season Finale

Tonight was the Royal Lawn Bowling Club’s season ender social event. Unlike previous years, the club had it catered right at the clubhouse on the south lawn at the Legislative grounds. It was a beautiful end of summer evening. The was cool, but not cold. The clubhouse was decorated for the occasion and was quite…

Wine in the Hood

Ah, tonight’s walk was a scensory overload. We did our obligatory spin around the neighbourhood (12 blocks), and we ended up at Route 99 for dinner. Michael had a clubhouse with fries, and I opted for breakfast, because I happen to love breakfast. Route 99 was an auditory nightmare – the jukebox was playing, the…
