next 2021/12 – Me gusta comer en las panaderías de Colombia. Es muy barato. Acá estoy listo para desayunar con una galleta linda, un tamal y un cafe con leche. Sin embargo, hay algo que no me gusta. Me encanta el queso, pero los Colombianos lo comen mezclado con helado, con frutas o hundido en […]
Playhouse Exploration
next 2021/11 – I enjoyed visiting Max and Maya’s two-storey playhouse here. I have always admired quirky buildings with character and I have always sought opportunities to explore them. As a child, I sometimes entered abandoned houses, especially out in the countryside. I imagined blending in with all the history of the families that lived […]
A Shiny New Car!
next 2021/10 – Raymond became the proud owner of a Toyota Corolla 2022. This is his seventh car altogether.
Fun with Lasers
next 2021/10 – You can create so much more with lasers than just printing documents and photographs. Lasers will cut or draw on plastic, glass, metal, and other materials limited to your imagination. Here, I laser printed a welcome mat and a cutting board just in time for my father’s birthday.
Dad’s in the Kitchen Again
next 2021/09 – No, it is NOT Colonel Mustard with a candlestick in the library! It’s Dad with a spatula in the kitchen. Dad has been cooking up a storm lately. The mix for his yummy fruit cake (on the right) requires an entire month to ferment!
Matching T-shirts
next 2021/08 – Ray talked to Foreign Affairs minister and former astronaut Marc Garneau about the destruction of human lives for political gain during a march to protest the detention of Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig. It is regrettable that China consistently chooses exploitation and manipulation rather than taking the moral high ground. #BringThemBack
An Unusual Flower
next 2021/08 – I have never seen such an unusual flower. Granted, I wish I had photographed it before it got so weather-beaten. The flower starts off as a stem with leaves ending with a flower. Nothing unusual here. But then, from the middle of that flower, the stem continues and there is another flower […]
Retired
next 2021/07 – Retirement is a situation where you don’t work but you still get lots of free money. I’m all in! What took me so long? Now that I’m retired, I will only do fun things and I vow never to work again. Thank you, Jacques, for this hat to help me celebrate the […]
Number One
next 2021/06 – Jeannine Pilon April 25, 1936 to June 24, 2021 I am pretty sure that tomorrow, the sun will rise in the East. My mother’s love and support, however, I am completely certain of. To know this and to be able to take this for granted has given me an incredible advantage in […]
