These will be updated to include a category with time, but to generalize, most involve music, photos, or general personal blogging. Basically I learned about categories when I was 700 posts in, and didn’t care to go back more than a couple hundred entries categorizing.
Having always lived here, the fascination with Niagara Falls to tourists has always been a foreign (heh) concept. We live right beside a place everyone in the world can only hear about or see on TV and no one really cares. For many who live here, it’s over-hyped for what it is. Miklos, on the other hand, came here when he was a boy and still loves the Falls even though he’s probably driven by and seen them hundreds of times more than the people … Continue reading
I previously had no idea who ‘Elvira Quesada’ is, but since his name is apparently a keyword that has led people to my site, welcome! Click around! I have no idea how your search brought you here (prior to this entry, I mean), but you’ve found someone hopefully as unique albeit not as interesting! I love every living thing. Or something.

Just thought I would share the strange thing we found on a drive earlier tonight. Those (us) nutty Canadians. What is the significance here? Share the post “Bra Tree …?” FacebookXShare… Continue reading
For some reason, today after writing about the country road photo I want to take, I decided to check out the price range of homes on the outskirts of our fair town. Finding an incredible looking place by the river with tonnes of history and lots of updates, we decided to take a drive by for interest’s sake. Our eyes panned over the outside of this beautiful house. A large lot, it was a beautiful older style house with a modern yellow door; a nice-sized … Continue reading
If you live on the countryside today, I consider you very lucky. One of this year’s photo assignments for me is to photograph a wet country road with a super-sunny sky, tree shadows all around. (If you do it first, please post so I can enjoy your picture!) I got the suburban version of that today but, as you can imagine, it’s really not as picturesque as the country concept. For the first time in a while, coffee tastes incredible this morning. The Tassimo sort … Continue reading
I was happy to read this today. From the Weather Network: So far this year, Mexican authorities have counted 1,198 whale calves and 523 adults, a steep rise from the 599 counted in 2011 and the 183 counted in 2010. The whale count is the highest it has been since 1996, when a total of 2,721 gray whales were counted by environmental authorities. Between 2007 and February 2012, the government estimates that approximately 3,553 gray whales were born in Mexican waters. The whales breed in … Continue reading
I remember waking up and looking at my Twitter feed the morning it happened. It was a day after my sister’s birthday. (Oh by the way, should she read this, happy birthday Meghan!) Japan had been hit by an enormous wave that demolished so many homes and destroyed enormous expanses of farmland, and worst of all, ended up taking an estimated 20,000 lives. If that wasn’t enough, a nuclear plant was affected, causing additional threat. The footage was unreal. Water was on fire as it … Continue reading
I felt I would explain a strange occurrence from earlier this evening on a drive with the betrothed. For once, the sunset was actually decent, so we went on a drive and I took the camera to document. At one point we ended up on a beach (featured here) which, as it is March, was, albeit beautiful, ice-cold on the fingers to take pictures of. When we returned to the car, my fingers eventually got their circulation back, but the cold decided to re-locate to … Continue reading
More on this maybe later, yes? Share the post “The Beach in March” FacebookXShare… Continue reading
I actually hate IKEA. Is it an acronym? Is it a name? The all-caps leaves too much to the imagination. I’m old fashioned. I’ll treat it like an acronym. One reason I hate IKEA is because nothing in reality could truly look as good as it looks in IKEA. Okay, I’m going to stop acronymising it now. It just looks like I’m screaming the name IKEA! at you. I would hate to do that and never would in person even if I was really mad … Continue reading
