If you’re thinking of buying some chocolates for the missus this Valentine’s Day, a little friendly advice. Shop early, because I expect this Cowbell special is going to create a chocolate shortage in this part of the world. This one is a loco cocoa imperial storm...
Just like Captain Morgan (yes the same one that adorns that half finished bottle of rum in the liquor cabinet that no one has touched since three Christmases ago) I too search for the cup of gold. * His cup of gold was Panama (he had to settle for Jamaica), mine is...
Is Walker-ville a haven for seniors? Or like Mackinac Island, no cars allowed? * Whatever goes on in historic Walkerville, be assured they have a brewery that is built on Honesty (lager) and Purity (pilsner). Of course, we could skip the history of Walkerville and...
Apparently Antler is a fancy pants eating establishment. Sounds like you might drop a couple of bucks there. The bill might be dear, but worth a try if you’re game.They tell us it’s Michelin recognized! I’ve never been to a Michelin restaurant but back in the day I...

After travelling with Collective Arts from Peak to Peak it was time to head for the Summit, but the view was so nice what started as a peak became a stare. Sounds like another Summit Series to me, some peak competition so to speak. Here’s hoping for a similar...
Fun facts about the Little Apple. It takes me two hours to get there but only one hour to get home. The Path is 18 miles long and I’ll walk all of those miles at least once before I ask for directions.* And when you’re walking the downtown streets no matter which way...
