The lions out front of the New York Public Library are called Patience and Fortitude. It felt like I needed both today, but didn’t have them. I like New York City a lot but it’s a city I’d like to visit with just my wife, or friends. Having…

Sir Sandford Fleming Park – The Dingle
Yesterday we went and visited Sir Sandford Fleming Park again. Ezra loves this place. He calls the Memorial Tower a castle. It really is a beautiful area that we only recently started visiting. It’s sometimes embarrassing the things I don’t know about our local history and area. Sir Sandford Fleming was an accomplished man andContinue reading “Sir Sandford Fleming Park – The Dingle”

Good and busy weekend
As luck would have it most of our weekends have worked out really well to not have both basketball tournaments and dance competitions falling at the same time. This weekend was the exception.

Today was the day I was finally going to take care of a task I’d been putting off for a while. Getting the winter tires off my and my daughters car.
