I’m no expert about the weather so I am not qualified to comment on the types of linings that may be prevalent in a various cloud types. But on a more cirrus note, I’m not sure that every cloud has a silver lining unless of course the cloud has been seeded with silver...
I’m a Flying Monkeys fan. No not those mangy minions of the Wicked Witch of the West that swooped down to abscond Dorothy and Toto. I’m talking about the Platos of the pints, the Aristoles of the ales, the Socrates of the suds, the Kants of the can. Those heavy...
Way back in the day when I was a kid the only shows on TV that I remember were Saturday morning cartoons, Hockey Night in Canada, the Ed Sullivan Show (loved that Topo Gigio) and Gunsmoke. The old man loved Gunsmoke almost as much as he loved to smoke. Let’s put it...
At the Lake of Bays Bracebridge Barrlehouse for a brew and it turned out to be a serendipitous suds sampling. Serendipitous, how so you say, because you enjoy an alliteration as much as I do. * Well, I hand my business card to the bar tender, because when I’m...

We started our cross country coast to coast toast to Canada at Port Rexton on the East Coast island of Newfoundland. Our tour concludes about as far West as we can get, on Vancouver Island at British Columbia's capital, Victoria. 4979 kilometers for one very tired...
We all know the world could use a little more Canada, so we have deemed this week Canadian classics week, with a Coast to Coast toast to the country with the most, Eh. First the Rock, now we're heading West and in the sand with a short but sweet guest review from PEI...
We all know the world could use a little more Canada, so we have deemed this week Canadian classics week, with a Coast to Coast toast to the country with the most, Eh. Following the sun, and the best from East to West, you can't get more East than the Rock. It sure...
In the Muskokas and I was feeling a tad thirsty, a bit peckish. I was looking for something tasty, so a home cooked meal by Chef Roy-Ar-Dee was not on the table, figuratively or literally. The choice was clear, as in Clear Lake Brewery. A regular COM Oktoberfest stop,...
