Located on the northern end of the Northumberland Strait, Koujibouguac is a gorgeous collection of dunes, beaches, and coastal forest. I hadn’t visited the park since childhood before returning in 2001, probably almost 20 years later, but I could still remember the boardwalks and dunes. This past summer I took my family there (Amber, my … [Read more…]
This past summer in New Brunswick, I again had the privilege of visiting my childhood friend’s farm. Jean-Pierre and I were little buddies when we were pre-schoolers because our parents were good friends. Along with my grandmother, he and his family represent for me my origins and a sense of home as they are geographically … [Read more…]

We picked blueberries, raspberries, currants, strawberries, cherries, and some things I don’t even know what they were called.

I’ll wait 2 weeks before putting snow tires on … [Read more…]

My colleague, Mr. Schneider, managed to gather a few astronomers with their impressive telescopes in our back field at the school. He gave a short talk and presented about 10 minutes of a video about God and the … [Read more…]
Traveled to Prince Edward Island yesterday. I made a quick visit about 4.5 years ago in the winter to visit some friends, but otherwise I hadn’t been in more than 20 years (I think). The bridge is less than 45 minutes away from my father’s house. Our first stop was Green Gables. I wasn’t keen … [Read more…]
My gracious wife granted her grace on this extravagant purchase after we reviewed a few of my friend Justin’s pictures that he had taken in Guatemala. I went to Black’s Photo and got the Nikon D90 with a couple lenses: 18-105mm f3.5-5.6G ED VR and the 50mm f1.8D. I’ve been clicking pictures ever since. bee … [Read more…]
A mixture of clay and gravel stand against time, wind, and pounding waves to support giant figures complete with evergreen hair. A wonder of the world in the Bay of Fundy.
