Apparently we had a twister touchdown briefly not far from Barrie. I took this photo on my way into karate, learning along the way that you if must stop to instagram how cool the sky looks, you will get wet. It was one of those beautiful storms where the sky opens up all at once and…

Last spring, Leslie, Rayna and I went to Colbourne Ontario, to meet Mr. Alvin Ramer. Mr. Ramer is, among many things, a spinning wheel guru, precious piece of Canadian history and, along with his wife Barbara Ann, a very wonderful person. Sadly, Mr. Ramer is retiring from the wheel business. Last weekend the three of…

For Labour Day weekend, Tito and I, along with 2 of our best friends, headed to Collingwood. We stayed in an absolutely charming house called Pedulla’s Mountainside B&B. The owners were helpful, informative, and fabulous cooks. On their advice we skipped the Collingwood Scenic Caves in favour of the Singhampton Caves. You’ll have to excuse…

It’s been a rough couple of weeks – like working all day and then having a shoot at night and working all evening, that kind of rough. On top of that I like to add nutty things like yoga and karate, and oh, trying to be a first time author. On Friday, the first samples…
