OK. I know I've been quiet for a while now ... it's because I've been chilling out in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, LEKs home town. Now you may think that I've just been a lazy arse here, and you would be mostly correct! But I have actually gotten ... Read more >

Taos was the sweetest little town with great galleries and quirky stores, and we wished we had spent 2 nights there instead of in Santa Fe. Had great food in Michael's restaurant and found 'the first trading post in the US', if you can believe the ... Read more >

In 2 days I will be on the plane heading for Calgary, Canada. I've done the washing, mended the clothes that needed it, put a new light coloured lining in the new, black-fringed, suede shoulder bag that I'm taking, laid all my clothes and toiletries ... Read more >

Only 8 days till I leave on THE BIG ROAD TRIP. Starting to get all my things sorted now. Want to keep my luggage at a minimum as we won't have a lot of room in Leigh-Ellen's small car. But have to think about the weather.
