The COVID-19 pandemic has been really hard on most of us in one way or another. Patronizing local businesses is a great way to help our neighbours as well as ourselves in the long run and if they can open and keep everyone safe, why not visit? As soon as I heard that Wanuskewin would […]
When I first heard that there would be a new museum in town a few years back, I was excited. Despite being a young province, there’s actually quite a bit of history here. Okay, I’m not that big into airplanes but I was still curious. Unfortunately, it’s too easy to forget about places once the […]
I’ve heard a lot of people talk about fishing at Borden Bridge but I have never been there. To be honest, I’ve never really know where it was. With everything still on hold due to the pandemic, I thought finding this place would be a nice little adventure. As it turns out, I’ve seen this […]
There’s no soap opera better that what nature can provide. Watching the birds from our kitchen window is always a beautiful and sometimes occasion. Whether laughing them chuck seeds out of the feeder, watching the screech at each other, or just staring in awe of their aerial acrobatics, the birds provide loads of entertainment. Here […]
Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock these days, you’ll know what there’s a bright comet in the sky. Most comets seem to come and go with buzz mostly from just astronomy nerds.

Meewasin Valley Authority’s Crocus Prairie park is one of my favorites in Saskatoon. It’s relatively quiet, fairly untouched, and also serves as an off-leash dog park so I can take my little Bella walking with me. Because of the smaller number for users, much of the park seems to maintain it’s wild grasslands appearance which […]
Photography practice continued this spring when I went to capture the rising “Strawberry” moon at the Northeast Swale. This area of Saskatoon is a natural wonderland for many plants and animals including many on the endangered list. Unfortunately, the city is hell bent on destroying these grounds. On my way home after shooting the moon, […]
There’s no doubt that Saskatoon is a beautiful city which makes it a great place for photography. At the end of February, I realized that I haven’t really done any sunset photos so, here’s my first attempt!
You would think that a pandemic would be a perfect time to work on one’s website and yet, here we are in July and I still haven’t posted anything from this year. I’m going to do my best to play catch-up and where better to start than with flowers! The start of 2020 began with […]
