Happy Memorial Day to all Newfoundlanders and Labradorians. And later today, Happy Canada Day.

😬😬😬

Happy birthday to me! Oh and also to some guy named @mark-carney.bsky.social .

Live at the Brier cheering on team NL Gushue.

First ride on the fat bike this year. Great day for it.

Saturday morning coffee with the lap dog.

Finished up a little project. This took a few evenings and most of this weekend; super happy with the way it turned out.

Every project starts with an idea, but you gotta start somewhere. From thin air to cardboard and tape, now becoming lumber and hardwood. From my wife’s ideas to reality. Still a long way to go, but we’ll get there. The first pic is the concept. I’ll finish over the next couple of weeks.

Bahahhaa, 16 years of owning dogs and this is the first time I’ve had one actually pee on a fire hydrant!

St John’s calls it Snowmagedden, Corner Brook calls it Tuesday.

Couple jars of homemade cranberry sauce, waiting for the Christmas turkey.

This little guy needed a home, and we are so glad that we took him in. What a sweet little gentleman he is!

Tire changing day at my house. Winter tires on everything.

Holy shit! #GoJays

How it started, how’s it going….late night at the ER yesterday.

We had to say goodbye to Lucy today. Fifteen and a half years. Our hearts are broken. She loved beach days, campfires, and trail rides. Anywhere we went, she was our constant companion. 13/10

The fall colours are really coming out great. Corner Brook, Newfoundland.

Upgraded my ride!

A bit chilly today, but a lovely fall day. Best kind for a boil up with chilli and toutons.

Exploring St. John’s by bicycle. Great way to get around the city.

Great day on the trails today. 127 km with friends. Forests, rivers, beaches, trails, and a great meal at a local restaurant. Big Falls, Cormack, Deer Lake and Howley, Newfoundland and Labrador.

Best view from any MacDonalds in Canada. Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador. Last rays of the sun.

Probably our last beach day for the summer.

Struck the blueberries this evening. The dog, though, was no help whatsoever.

If I'm looking for my favorite mug, guaranteed it's in the microwave half full of day old coffee.

This is all valid here in Newfoundland and Labrador too. Except for specific regulations.

Cherries are ripe!

I drove my car to work today. I literally cannot remember the last time I did that. I walk in the winter and bike in the summer, and my wife drops me off when the weather is bad. But I actually can’t think of the last time that happened in the past 3-4 years.

We hiked out to Cedar Cove on the west coast of Newfoundland today, where a container ship wrecked in February. Salvage operations are ongoing.

Sunset ride for an ice cream.

Full moon over the Bay of Islands, Newfoundland and Labrador.

Forget s’mores! Grilled cheese over the campfire. Deadly!

Little camper breakfast on the go.

Great beach day today, Howley, Newfoundland and Labrador.

Beautiful evening at Howley.

Freecycled coffee and end tables.

Truth

Little Saturday adventure.

Attention Street Design Nerds! One of the most intriguing cities in recent years at reconsidering streets for people instead of just for cars, Oslo Norway, translated their great Street Design Manual into English and put it on-line. It’s worth digging into. #Oslo www.oslo.kommune.no/getfile.php/...

Sunset over Corner Brook, Newfoundland.

Doing some spring maintenance. Changed all the oils, new spark plugs, painted the bumpers and doors, new suspension bushings installed, and a shiny new set of tires. Ready for the summer!

Nudding like it.

I got a moose last fall, first time in several years. Just discovered that my tiny wolf here absolutely loves moose meat. She’s 15 years old and follows us around the kitchen whenever we cook it.

One thing we can all do is check local shops for items we want instead of going straight to Amazon. I also go to my local bike shop and have them order stuff for me instead of ordering it on Amazon. It gives them the business and they order direct from the manufacturer, often saving me a few bucks.

I’m switching to SPD pedals on my road bike to make walking easier. I ordered new shoes but I already have pedals. I like to make things match so I disassembled, cleaned and painted them to match my bike. New decals and voila.
