This trip all started with my best friend asking, "You know what we should do sometime?" I responded with a whole slew of suggestions like watch the stars come out at night, have a picnic, nap at the beach, fly to a foreign country, go on an adventure etc. I wasn't exactly wrong. She replied with h…

Literally... it may not seem like it, but I was born in the sleepy town of Merritt, British Columbia, where my family lived for several years. No longer sporting even a hospital, it's slowly fading away into obscurity, brought back to life every year with the Merritt Mountain Music Festival. Every …

I can’t even count the number of times I’ve been to Vancouver. In August of 2007, I was supposed to take a trip down to North Carolina. However, unfortunate circumstances forced me to cancel that trip. So, with two weeks to kill, I decided to take a spur-of-the moment trip to Vancouver with the…

I went flying around Toronto in a Cessna 172 the other day and I took some alright pictures from up there. I managed to take pictures of suburbs and the downtown...it's so different! We have trees and rivers and farms and all that, and I had no idea!

As this is my first travel blog or even blog ever, i can only apologies in advance on the look and general lay out of it, but i'll give it my best shot. It was a Glorious Monday (10th of march) morning in Scotland and it was a great day for my first maiden solo trek across the Atlantic ocean,…

A skier paradise!

I got up and my friend took me by Tim Horton's one last time, then we switched cars with her family and her mother drove me through Windsor one last time and through the tunnel to the USA. There was a little traffic in the tunnel, but it wasn't bad. i was surprised that it was so narrow - there was…

The saddest part of all cruises is disembarking.  This was no different.  We got off relatively painlessly though and picked up our rental car to tour around Vancouver in.   We checked into our hotel in Vancouver and then my husband and son were eager to cross the suspension bridge.…

Well having stayed in Montreal for about 8 days in the last days of December, I do recommend bringing some heavy clothing for the winter time. The city sidewalks and streets were completely covered in snow for the 8 days I was there. But forgetting about the freezing cold winter temperatures a…

Najet, (Najet3) had a birthday on Nov 2nd and I looked at her profile photo and thought, I could give her a small gift by changing her shot. I downloaded the shot and did a little lighting and color changes.  I hope she is happy with the outcome.  Happy Birthday!!   If this is a p…

This Sunday May 10th, 2009; Hubby, dancr, wanted to take me and the girls into the Rockies and explore the beauty of Johnston Canyon. What a place to see and later we went to Lake Lousie ... the canyon was the best ... an adventurous walk that all TB members should explore and experience!!

I was in Vancouver for 5 days wit ma buddy James off this site (Jas1313) - There were more pics but when I went to NZ I lost it when I fell into the ocean lol....

I thought I would put up a few photos that I have taken over the last couple of weekends of all the fall colors that I come upon.  I took Tuggs out with me to go for a few walks.  I am hardly ever home and the poor guy hardly gets out to see things...Soooooooooo...I figured I would take h…

The morning of our departure from Victoria was cloudy and rainy but we were happy to be off to sunny Saskatchewan. Our WestJet flight was direct from Victoria to Calgary mostly above the clouds but the clouds opened over Kelowna so we could see the new William R. Bennett bridge spanning Okanagan La…
