Edmonton 90th

 Edmonton get away

Long over due, Kim and I get up to Edmonton to celebrate our granny 90th birthday.

Granny loves the Queen so there was talk of her reaching  💯 years and getting a letter from the monarch.

A photo with the Aunts and Uncles with Granny and Grandpa 


We go to a new restaurant in old Edmonton.

Having pierogies for dinner 🥗🥣.  We almost took to long cause we didn't know if we never closed our menu that they don't come to our table to check our order.  We showed 1hr and 1/2 to closing with our reservation and we never closed our menu for the first 1/2 hour.  So we were very hungry by the time our food came.

We stopped at a bakery on our way to Edmonton.

We said we would go again.  It was a pleasant experience 😉.


Total Gluten Free Bakery


5100 Wolf Creek Dr Unit 2, Lacombe, AB T4L 2G6

(403) 789-8432 Total gluten free bakery

We got some gluten free muffins (like lemon poppy seed and strawberry muffins and baked pizza bread and garlic bread with pizza sauce  there)

Kim enjoyed the lemon poppy seed muffins, she was surprised. Her first time trying it.

Here we are in Vulcan County

With cyborg or star trek stuff. We stopped picked up snacks(beef jerky) and kept driving up north.  To the train station near Aspen Crossing Train Station took a photo at the tavern and escape room. I think you have to book to get to use it ☺️.

It's never open when we go by.

In our way, favorite out of vehicle walk about

A photo of us sitting.

We catch a couple photos as granny enters the yorath 🏠 house.   A few tables around the room.  


All the grandkids sat at my Granny table.

Granny square dancing friends and lady's night friends all got together ☺️.

Most the room was mingling around chatting with each table.  Is a pleasure 🙂 to meet many people as well as Family we haven't seen for awhile. 

Family members from all over.

Was quite an event, some travel far to visit.


The dog is with Kim's parents this weekend 

Dixie was sure excited to see me when we picked her up.  She sure missed us. just all jumping for joy.

Kim and I go to old Edmonton area.

An all gluten free restaurant 🙂 so they brought out bread for Kim and I right away.

We stop on our way out of Edmonton

To visit with Kim's Uncle and Auntie.

Going for an early lunch or late breakfast 🥐.


Out to Albert's we enjoyed a meal 

It was only a few blocks away. 

20 minutes from our hotel 🏨.


A gopher museum is exciting, as we explored the town and visited the shops.

We went here cause it was in heart land episode 😁 and they broke in as such in TV.

The show I guess mentioned the floor was donated to them and said they would paint a shop outside for them on the little shop that was the store.
Made an interesting visit and conversation. Kim enjoyed her self, I sort of stopped for her.
Made it an enjoyable weekend coming home.

One of our many stops on our way travels.

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 ...

Walk mid October with my Mom

  Walks with my mom The water looks like glass just crystal smooth.  My mom and I are walking to the river and in life. It’s like we’re always walking away.  Getting closer to the end, my poet mind says.   I say I got to enjoy these walks and I was silent most the walk just trying to enjoy 😊 my time with her. Or walk end more so with 🐾 paw printed pants 👖 from dogs jumping.  We say maybe a dozen dogs 🐕. A wonderful time.  I often thought it was too early to spell like alcohol.  But surprised to pass another walker, but each to their own I probably smell like an ashtray. Although I never smoked or chewed tobacco on my walk.  I just want to walk with my mom.  Often times I don’t think I could spit out everything I wanted to say so much so that I just said in these moments you don’t have to chew tobacco and say anything. Dixie and both us individually by the fallen tree arch. A path going to the river, under which most the trees 🌳 there are...

Walk and a run in to the vet

 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….🐕 We enjoy 😊 our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university  Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park,  it tricky terrain for sure.  It’s nice 😊 for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog 🐕 being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera 📸  The walk was decent though some difficult 😞 parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking.  She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop 💩 walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk.   Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...
