It’s Canada Day next week (Tuesday) and, as always (perhaps more so given the recent distressing nonsense from near and far) I’m so happy this is my home. It’s not perfect, but my sense is, as a nation, we are mostly trying to paddle in the right direction (it would need a large canoe, but all are welcome to climb in)…

So, if you’re Canadian and choose to celebrate, have visited Canada, maybe would like to visit one day, or simply like maple syrup and the big outdoors, Happy Canada Day!
I am a would be outdoorsman - that is if I had more time, skills and knowledge. When I can, I love being outdoors, just camping, hiking, snowboarding, xc skiing, snowshoeing, paddling a canoe or trying something new.

No home is perfect but sounds like you’re doing okay with that paddle of yours! Keep rowing Adam, stay afloat in this crazy world with those beers and outings and enjoy your Canada Day and upcoming weekend. Gorgeous pics too, by the way! Cheers 😊
Happy Canada Day, my friend. I celebrate the grandeur of Canada with you and appreciate hearing about your adventures from coast to coast in this marvelous country. Cheers!
Happy Canada Day ahead, Adam. I’m hoping to again pay a bit of personal respect to the provinces with a brief visit to BC later this summer. Just a beautiful country overall.
Hope you guys are enjoying a wonderful Canada Day and celebrating more beautiful locations! Great photos and it’s so inspiring to read about unity and a country ready to “paddle in the right direction” instead of, OMG, Alligator Alcatraz as a headline of the day. Enjoy the day and week!🍻
Thank you! We’re enjoying a warm and sunny prairie Canada Day 🇨🇦
I’ve (happily, temporary ignorance is bliss) stayed away from most news the past three weeks, but Alligator Alcatraz? Might have to look that up, gulp…
Ok, now I wished I hadn’t looked it up…
Is it the cruelty or stupidity I find more upsetting? Both…
Back to the self imposed news embargo for me!
Enjoy your day!

Thanks, Miriam – yes, not perfect but we love it here, faults and all. I’m guessing you feel the same about Australia…
Have a great week!
