I’m baaaaaaack…..

Those of you that get notified when I post something can probably figure out that something is going on….

I will be resuming new posts to the blog in the very near future. I promise. I pinky-promise. I know you’ve heard this tune before but I am a terrible procrastinator and various events prevented me from implementing this plan in 2022 ((things like COVID, the death of one of my brothers, various health ailments (none serious, fortunately, but time-consuming to diagnose) and the fact that there have been major wildfires in the northern portions of BC and AB the past three years)).

Plans are in the works to head to western Canada soon after the 4th of July (of THIS year). I am definitely going to the three western provinces – British Columbia, Alberta and the western part of Saskatchewan. I already have that all mapped out and it will take 3 months and 17 days (not that anyone’s counting).

I have also decided that I will probably fly to Alaska (!) from Seattle and do some running around up there using various modes of transportation (mush, you huskies, mush).

The post below was accidental but represents part of my efforts to catalog all 1,308 posts made in prior years (almost 10,000 photos posted!). The folks at WordPress have talked me through printing all the post’s titles in bite-size portions. I will create pdf files containing all the entries which I can send to anyone interested. It will then be easy and fun to revisit old posts or perhaps discover posts you haven’t seen.

I will update the header page above as soon as I can remember how to do it (DONE), and will include photos of my new-to-me wheels (a spiffy red 2018 Toyota Camry XLE. Only 79,000 miles on it now but that’s fixin’ to change…). My 2014 Altima served me well for my prior trips (except for that pesky problem returning to Nova Scotia from Newfoundland…), but with over 224,000 miles on it (I bought it with 60k on it) it was time for a newer ride.

Thank you for your patience. I will try not to let y’all down!
