San Diego, CA – Laguna Beach, CA
Thanks to the opportunity to speak at MCN’s annual conference, I was able to get in a trip to San Diego, CA, right as Montreal is settling into a wintery deep freeze. After the event ended, I took Amtrak to Orange Country to visit some relatives for a few days.

Laguna Beach, CA
It’s been almost twenty years that I have been visiting my aunt and uncle in Laguna Beach and I have to tell you, this view never gets old. Every year, without fail, I find myself outside the first morning watching the fog cover slowly wash over the hills until it burns off for the day. […]

I don’t own a car
When I was in my late 20s and early 30s, I would routinely visit my grandparents on the weekends who were then in the last years of their life. Depending on the state of their health, we would laugh, talk, and I would usually take them out for groceries. It was a special time for […]

Behold the Tartan!
A few years ago I was searching the Internet aimlessly (I have a habit of doing that) and I stumbled onto information about the Newfoundland Tartan. Little did i know the history of it. Seems that a member of my family was responsible for designing the Tartan. I have a few friends from the Isles […]
