Excuse the shakiness, we weren't very good with that old Video Recorder, this is old footage but there are parts of it you can still see. You can surely get the feel of the atmosphere there though, what do you think?

Back a few years ago we made a stop at the 3 Valley Gap in British Columbia, here is just a short video of the wizard. A rather shakey video but hey, you get the picture I think.  An another note, I found that place, the 3 Valley Gap, to me, felt extremely haunted, and not all of the spirits were all that happy. Have you been there, what did you think, or did it bother you at all? I found the trains extra spooky, walking through them, hurry along please, skin is crawling.

  Here are the extras you can find at the World of Wheels show in Calgary Alberta. If you like collecting car memorabilia you need to attend nest years show in Calgary, we found a lot of interesting items; check out the video.

 Here is my Dollar Store Poochie painting, I messed around with that one for awhile, it's hard to decide for me exactly what I wish to do. There are so many different directions we are going right now it is hard to decide what I should be doing first, should I just go with what I choose to do first?  Many years ago I thought of starting a YouTube channel and I did for a bit, but work got in the way and it fell by the wayside. Now we have the opportunity to do so, I am beginning to realize it is a lot of work. I am not trying to discourage anyone, just letting you know, if you want it to work well, you have to put in some good honest work and build it just like any other business. YouTube kind of took me away from Art time, but as we are progressing here I want to dabble in that a bit more, we can share some of that on YouTube down the road too, it's all in how we balance it all out, or should I say on how I balance it all out, since it is my Art endeavour?  

Okotoks parade is coming up on June the 17th, are you going to make it out so see what they put together for Okotoks this year? The picture you are seeing here is from the 2022 parade, last years parade was pretty good.  On a side note we did make it out to the Black Diamond parade on June the 3rd and it was great, I hope the Okotoks parade will be as good or even better.  Of course with me, my favourite in parades is pretty much always the horses, go figure. They're just such beautiful creatures. Seeing old tractors in a parade is also unique, unique is good.  Then again a great looking float is always worth a gander as well, what are your favourite items in parades?

Kass decided we needed to try out some raised garden beds and so far, so good. The garden boxes were fairly easy for Kass to put together, takes a bit of effort but the setup was relatively quick and  straightforward, on top of all that they look great.    We planted Onions in the first one, tomatoes and zucchini in the second one and potatoes in the third one.  

We got you all some footage of the Black Diamond parade, as an FYI Black Diamond is now known as Diamond Valley, they have merged the two towns; Black Diamond and Turner Valley. Anyhow the parade was much better than we expected in all honesty and we did manage to get some good footage, thankfully. The Pete the Plumber truck really got my attention, not only because the truck is awesome but so is their Mascot which is in the box of the truck, great marketing there. You need to be unique to stand out in the business world nowadays. Watch the video, Kudos to Pete the Plumber on a great Business Presence, from a marketing standpoint. We've actually used their plumbing services in the past as well, but no, we are certainly not sponsored by them in any way.

Here we are walking in the Sheep River residential area on the walking path, some really pretty scenery, even if I do say so myself. Make me want to grab onto that beauty and let that feed me and purify my soul.  We were given such a gift but sometimes it seems that many do not even realize how beautiful their surroundings are. Many of us were born with this beauty surrounding us so we take it for granted. There are many places in the world where it is not so lush and beautiful, I for one am thankful to be able to view natures beauty.
