Kim goes to the river bottom

 Kim come with Dixie and I to sit in the river


We go picking up our dog dirt bags cause they started to blow away.  A little bit of wind makes all the difference here.

Keeps the heat down and bugs away.


Beautiful 😍 Kim

Laughing at the dog rubbing up against her.  We had fun, Kim didn’t want to get to wet, I jumped right in with the dog.  It’s 💭 hot enough for it. Not to many people down there, that I would of expected more.



Blue sky all clear for the fireworks 💥 tonight, to be a clear night tonight.


I got to work the next two days but I got off early to sit in the river with the dog. Pay and a half but when the dog depends on our river time or our ball tossing. 


I can’t really stay long at work and clean up or consume to many hours.  The dog mental health is our meantal health. If she’s not getting played with, there’s lots of triggering noises that she is barking at all through the day and night if she’s not tired.

I got to wear her out.  Finn not so much doing that behaviour but Dixie does it all the time.


I’m chewing tobacco and jumping in the water i with her.


I had a good time with Kim, more confident to go for a swim.

Kim got a big supper planned for us.


Potatoes 🥔 chicken 🍗 and fruit 🍉 


Also some sweet peppers 🫑 and carrots 🥕 and onions even 🫛 peas.

Kim got them at the farmers market and it’s a special treat for us from her parents.  My kind of nature food.

I’m excited 😊 for our meal, we’re having Bryan over for dinner cause he watered our plants while gone.  Where eating out side.


More pictures on the way of the cook out or BBQ 🍗

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...

Back in Stride: A Run Worth Celebrating

 After seven weeks of setbacks and recovery, I laced up with Dixie and reclaimed my rhythm—3.64 km of steady effort, heart in the aerobic zone, and a reminder that progress starts with showing up. This afternoon, Dixie and I laced up and headed out for a run while the daylight was still holding on. It felt so good to be back out there after a bit of a break, moving at our own pace and enjoying the fresh air together. There’s something about running with Dixie that makes the effort lighter—her energy and joy keep me motivated, even when I’m easing back into the rhythm. At first, I thought about pushing myself to five kilometers, but I remembered the back pain I’ve been dealing with and decided to listen to the advice of my AI fitness coach: don’t overdo it on the first run back. That reminder helped me focus on the joy of the moment instead of chasing distance. Sometimes the smartest choice is to start slow, and today proved that pacing myself was exactly what I needed. The run en...
