 Going to a trip up to Edmonton for the weekend 


Kim and I stop in Lacombe gluten free bakery 🧁 to get some treats for Kim. We take a break at a park to wait for the family reunion to start so we get at the right time.

I had a delightful time with Kim and it is a pleasure Kim could drive the entire time. Usually I’m the one driving to Edmonton and it is a nice change being a passenger.


We stay for one nights and getting back Sunday.

Nice to see family, we ate burgers 🍔 for supper there and we had a fun time.


We saw my grandparents new place. A pleasure to get coffee in the morning. Usually visit my grandparents we don’t get coffee cause they are aging but now the place has their own barista who serves us coffee.

I was happy. 😃 an adorable 🥰 place for them, the building looks wonderful designed. I think I may order them groceries so they can wait for those goodies, made Icecream with syrup and some some sandwiches 🥪.  Maybe a nice treats waiting in there new place would be a conversation started waiting for them.

Or a bag of nuts and dried out fruit from the bulk or pre package 📦. Treats coming in the delivery 🚚 is so much fun to wait and I think my grandpa would have fun getting this delivered.

I’ll have to talk it for parents today.

The family reunion was need some time to decompress the night but , the next day was way better than I would’ve imagined.

I had more fun seeing my grandparents next day cause they were in such a great mood. And seeing there new place is lots of excitement.


Happy for seeing there adventures


Today we sit out front to enjoy the sunshine and get ready for our day.

Dixie stayed with our in-laws and she was very active m. So that was a joyful exchange of time. I could share my dog to keep her active minutes up. The is so much more behaved with active minutes.

Although she didn’t sleep well with the change, it is still very much appreciated that she got to to stay with the in-laws on our trip.


We ate at a truly Italian restaurant with Kim’s colleague.  A delightful meal. Cost $67 for both Kim and I.


I ate my whole pizza 🍕, Kim and her friend had to take a care package 📦 home. 🏡 

They showed each others vehicles 🚗 they just got in the last year.

Her friend talked books with me which was lots of fun. I got a couple book recommendations to say we’re reading the same thing next time we meet.

I thought it was fun outing and a pleasure to meet Kim’s colleagues.

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

By
  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

By
 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...
