Vancouver’s Week On The Edge

Friday, January 5th, 2007

Greetings all and Happy New Years! Steve talkin’ at ya, I’ll be your content provider today. One of the biggest stories of the year in Canada was when Vancouver got some snow. Now this may not sound like a big deal to you. In fact, it didn’t sound like a big deal to Meghan and […]

Rain Can Make You A Little Crazy

Friday, November 24th, 2006

Greetings folks, Steve here. Well, it’s been raining for 100 years in Vancouver. Actually, it’s technically only been raining for a month, but with four months left to go in the Winter, it seems like it’s been at least 100 years. A friend of mine warned me before Winter in Canada looked like this:

Great Truths…About Horses

Monday, September 25th, 2006

Henry here. When I was a boy I learned how to put a harness on our horses. Being so little it was hard, and the horses teased me by squeezing me against the side of the stall. It was a major achievement, and necessary for the ongoing work on the fields but I will likely […]

Greetings all, Steve here with another When Reality Knocks lifestyle and technology update. Ya know, I read not too long ago that the need people have to continually listen to music might be a way to avoid being alone with their thoughts. If you’ve always got music on, it blocks out everything, including your own […]

Sorry For All The Spam

Friday, August 4th, 2006

Greetings all, Steve here. I have something unfortunate to report. It seems that this blog has become the target of increasing amounts of spam, or unwanted advertising sneaking in, and although I am working to eliminate it, it is still a problem. Nonetheless, we will continue on as normal, with our regular topics and I […]

The Technological Struggle Continues

Friday, July 28th, 2006

Howdy all, Steve here. Well, though progress marches onward, the struggle for perfection continues. I upgraded from a 35mm camera to a digital and feel quite happy with the move. Digital photography is easier, faster and cheaper than film photography and I’ve had nothing but success with it so far. Except for one little thing: […]
