I was out wogging along the creek a couple days ago, minding my own business, when I looked up and saw an eagle fly by. Yup, and eagle. Bald head and all. But in Port Franks, Ontario?! Now those of you who have been following this blog for a while know that my wogging has […]

Yup, it’s official. My new baby is here. And I love him. But before I tell you about him, I must catch you up on the other babies in my life. You see, for the past week I’ve been in the land of: “Oh, Canada. My home and…phlegmatic…land.” And speaking of phlegmatics, I headed to […]
YUP–IT HAPPENED. Just a few hours ago, in fact. But before we get into the milestone of grad, let’s take a look at the stepping stones that led us through the past couple of weeks to the brink of our seniors’ new life… Stacks became something of an…uhm…recurring theme! In my back yard during […]
