Take that, every baseball pundit.

I LOVE THIS TEAM.

In the Fall, the beautiful cascade of Bridal Veil Falls on Manitoulin Island heralds the arrival of spawning salmon, many of whom try to jump the falls before they die. The falls are one of the top attractions on #Manitoulin. buff.ly/jqJyADF #EastCoastKin #nature #manitoulinmagic #travel #fall

"Mom! Enough paperwork already! We want to go outside to play fetch!" If I ignore this, they will start to chase and wrestle each other, throwing toys in the air with vocalizations increasing in volume until I can no longer work. Genius! It works for them every time! #DogsofBlueSky #playtime #love

Two fluffy golden doodle dogs are looking with pleading eyes at their Mom asking of it is play outside time yet.

Our sweet Heidi as a puppy 2009. After years of steadfast love and devotion, she recently left us on Sept. 9 to cross the rainbow bridge. This is our favourite photo of her.

On our recent trip throughout Newfoundland and Labrador, we ducked into so many wonderful coves to enjoy the sea air and savour our solitude. #EastCoastKin #photography #BlueSkyArt #photography #iphone #Newfoundland

Waves crashing with white spray against ancient layers of mossy rock. So many colours of blue in the Atlantic Ocean.

Our lovely Heidi (on the right) recently crossed the rainbow bridge at almost 16 years old. So thankful that I took so many photos over the past year of our golden doodle trio. We, Molly, and Jazz miss her so! 💕 #DogsofBluesky #Thanksgiving #gratitude #rainbowbridge #autumnvibes

Pondering ... why?
Only in North America ...do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
Only in North America .....do banks leave vault doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.

A Manitoulin sunset like no other — the sun slipping low, painting the horizon in fire and gold while the sky drapes itself in soft blues and purples. A perfect evening where water, land, and sky meet in quiet harmony. #EastCoastKin #photography #manitoulinmagic #Manitoulin #sunsetlovers
