Thanks!
We have so very much to be thankful for. One day a year to 'celebrate' seems all wrong when on a daily basis there are many things to be grateful for. Good friends, family, jobs that pay great wages...
McQueston Moose
Late September Lawrie and I, along with our friends Chris and Sarah, went canoeing on the McQueston River in the Mayo area of Yukon. Ostensibly we were moose hunting, but come home with a moose we did...
Out and about Whitehorse
It seems these five weeks are blasting past. We have plugged a lot of activities into the time, along with working (albeit 4 days a week) and gardening. I think Lawrie actually did most of the garden...

Dawson Days

Coba, Mexico
Today we are off to see the ancient Maya city of Coba. It is a big site covering approximately 40 square miles, though only a little has been excavated. It is also a very good idea to get there early for...
