This weekend I went out on the water with a friend searching for puffins, seals and other interesting things. It was the longest that I have been on a boat for over a decade or more. The roundtrip time was expected to be about 4h, but with all the stops …
We went out in a friends boat this past weekend with no real goal. He wanted to go for a ride, and so did my big guy. So we made a plan that morning.
The water seemed relatively calm and I wanted to see puffins. I have never seen one …
Yesterday afternoon I had a need to get out of the house. It has been a grinding couple of weeks, and the historic rainfall that happened last friday resulted in a minor studio flood. Nothing like was experienced by a lot of other people around the province, but enough to …
