Just helped deb deb load up the truck and head off to California for a well deserved visit with her daughter and sis. Feels pretty lonely around here all of a sudden… not to mention a little scary to be left to my own devices at the no-tell-motel!  (not to mention a little trapped as [...]

The no-tell-motel is located near a couple of pretty small towns. I love the small town as ya’ll might remember?  Well about a month ago i had another small town experience i wanted to share…. which might include a little side digression. Somehow my life has been complex in the past 5 or more years (well i have [...]

Life in the country, well maybe i should say life on a highway exit, comes with some challenges. Recycling is one of them. The nice recycle truck doesn’t actually come pick up your cute carefully sorted little blue box out here in no-tell-motel land. What you have to do is gather it all up, hop in your [...]

Rattling about the no-tell-motel this holiday monday afternoon all by my lonesome. Deb deb has taken a deserved afternoon off from the compound to meet a friend in the big city. Which, if ya’all are following along, leaves me in charge…. god help me! So far no major frig up’s, wish me luck got a few hours to go… At the [...]

BC is one of those boom-bust places. Hardly anyone we’ve met actually comes from here, all came  west  from somewhere else to make their fortune…. Canada’s version of California. We met a fellow over the weekend,  someone we seem to keep meeting again and again in these here parts. Well different guy, but same tale. [...]

Am sitting here anxiously awaiting the arrival of “the truck” which is bringing “our stuff”. Well i say “our stuff” but really mean “my stuff”, or as deb deb aptly named it last night… my baggage! Somehow all our things in storage have magically been put on a truck, and that truck has magically managed [...]

Today i give you a series of fun pictures of airstreams that i gathered up across the internet… to celebrate a clean and shiny airstream sitting out in the yard, and a lovely day spent in her company.

One of the things i missed about living in the airstream (probably the only thing!) was gardening. Gardening has been a long time constant in my life… from the time i was a teen, and garnered a little space for a garden in my grandparents yard… i’ve put down roots.  We have a nice little space here at [...]

So, part 2 of feast or famine… or maybe chapter 4 (if you are following along!)… My friend, joanie came to town from Ottawa. Sunday after helping dylan get some rooftop planter materials for his new digs, and dropping him off… i swung round the corner and picked her up so she could come out [...]

It’s either feast or famine around these parts. For months it’s been just deb deb and i rattling around in this space, then somehow over the span of 4 days… visitors…. VISITORS as in plural! Whooo hooo! First it was dylan… managed to nab him his first weekend in town. Know he’s going to get busy being [...]
