Another Sunday Fire

Before the fire 🔥 Ban

We sit with two dogs by the 🔥 fire. Brushing the dogs to get some extra fur off. It's tick season so I'm going through their fur.

As I put more wood on the fire, Dixie wants to play tug a war and Dawson sort of only wants to be brushed.

The fire 🔥 is a great way before it's not allowed.

If not snow comes sure enough it will be in place until it rains it snows..

The fire also went out. We are getting lots of Sun 🌄 and Kim's reading a book in the sun.

I'm sort of writing this between two dogs a fire and Kim reading.

Dixie knocked over Kim's pop.

We are talking of cooking thick pork chops on the BBQ. Thinking out of this pork roast we have sitting in the sink from being vacuum seal and from the freezer.

Both are by us and trying to get our attention from blogging and reading.

The fire going, so much going on.

The sun shining, smell of smoke but the fan on the smokeless fire pit it's not over powering.

The grass is dry. Not to.mych more of these plus 16 celius and no more fires.

That's the talk walking the paths this morning.

And no reprieve from this warm weather.

It might be a dry season. A good year to get an air purifier. Pull the smoke out of the house.

I'm thinking a new filter is also certain soon. I do clean it. And after the lint dryer washer problem was fit so much dusting has been slowed down. The problem is slowly solving it self.

An enjoyable afternoon.

And a great supper planned.

Cheers for the day 😌 Kim and I had a good Sunday and Saturday. Hope your all having a great Sunday as well.

Nothing but blue sky today and plus 19.

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour 🏃‍♂️

Dixie and I go for a run 🏃‍♂️ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead. I think it was the hill climb that did it. I ran fully down hill no problem 😌 We made good time. For a hill run 🏃‍♂️ It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️ I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good 😊 today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Celebrating Ten Years and Living My Best Life🧘‍♂️ A Quiet Day at Home

🎉 Celebrating 10 Years Together Last night was a beautiful celebration of a decade spent with Kim. We marked our 10-year anniversary with a cozy dinner at The Keg, where I indulged in a hearty 20 oz steak and Kim opted for a more modest 8 oz cut. It felt so good to get out together and enjoy a special evening. We kept things simple—just water to drink, with fresh bread and salad to start. The atmosphere was perfect, and I soaked in every moment of our time together. We’re incredibly grateful for our families, who made the night even more special. My parents generously gave us cash to enjoy our dinner, and Kim’s parents gifted us movie money so we could extend the celebration. Their thoughtfulness reminded us how lucky we are to be surrounded by love and support. Family and friends made it sweeter We were so blessed by our families: my parents gave us cash to enjoy the night and Kim’s parents sent money for a movie treat. Our friends even gifted us a 20% tip card for the meal...

Gratitude, Good Food, and Good Books

A Thanksgiving weekend of family meals, long walks, and reaching 86 books this year Bryan and I headed out for a walk after he returned from his sister’s Thanksgiving gathering, settling into a steady 30‑minute pace that carried us just under 2 km. The air was crisp with a light breeze, the kind of weather that makes movement feel effortless. I’ve always loved these cooler temperatures—my body doesn’t have to work as hard, and the transition from “easy mode” into a gentle warm‑up felt natural. Carrying 30 pounds with me added that extra layer of challenge, but it blended seamlessly into the rhythm of the walk. We paused at a park bench along the way, taking a moment to sit together before snapping a photo. That small break reminded me how these walks are as much about connection as they are about distance or weight carried. The combination of fresh air, conversation, and the grounding presence of the season made the outing feel restorative. It wasn’t just a walk—it was a reminder...
