I’m back home in Whitehorse now, but would like to show you the past few days in southern Alberta and British columbia, including a particularly wonderful 24 hours in the Rockies. Last Monday I went into Calgary with my daughter, to drop my grand-daughters off at school. This was...

I’m now on Day 5 of a trip to see family members in southern British Columbia and Alberta. I haven’t taken very many photos (185 so far, 70 of them in a single car museum 🙂 ) but I’ll show you some of the places I’ve been. This was...

I decided on Wednesday that the weather forecast was good enough to drive to another season for the day – I’ve already had enough of Winter, and it was a fairly safe bet that Fall was only a couple of hours away. The cloud bank and morning light produced...

I’ve mentioned the walk around the airport before, and yesterday was so pretty I decided to spend some time there after a meeting in town. The trail is paved for a few hundred yards and then is well-tracked dirt with many side-trails. This is the north end of the...

This is the 3rd and final installment of my Ontario travelogue, taking us from Toronto to Niagara Falls, back to London and finally home to Whitehorse. In the Yukon you drive for hours to get to the next town or attraction, but in Ontario there are towns everywhere and...

My regular readers will have noticed that I only posted once while I was in Ontario and have been quiet since. My excuse is that I’ve been sick for 3 weeks and at the end of busy days there’s just been no energy left to show you what I’ve...

I’m on the road again, this time about 3,200 kilometers from home, in southern Ontario visiting Cathy’s parents. This is my first trip to Ontario since a school trip in 1968, and my first real look at any of the province. I found researching what to see and where...

Last Friday I took advantage of a mostly-sunny day to ride the motorcycle down to Carmacks, on the Yukon River and the North Klondike Highway. This hasn’t been a great year for Fall colours, but it’s not too bad, and I’ve gotten a few photos. I found this little...

My “Bucket List” is a lengthy one, but one that I’m chipping away at. From Antarctica and Greenland to Bora Bora and the Great Barrier Reef, I want to see and experience “everything”! Last year’s highlights from my list were snorkeling with turtles at Bridgetown, Barbados, and scuba diving...

This is kind of scary if only because of how simple it is. I’ll bet this works all too often. You arrive at your hotel/motel and check in at the front desk. When checking in, you give the front desk your credit card (for all the charges for your...
