October 18, 2004Edmonton, AB Greetings from snowy and seriously brrrrr Edmonton. Have been here for a couple days visiting with the amazing Mr. Bill Bourne. Bill’s been giving me some Flamenco guitar lessons (lucky me) and I’ve been struggling desperately to wrap my brain (and fingers) around the crazy rhythms and such…. It’s going to take me a while but… see more…
October 13, 2004Thunder Bay, ON Sooo sleepy in the sleazy motel… and still such a long country to go! Had a lovely drive today, the blue blue sky, the sweet golden sun and the most beautiful autumn colours I have ever in my life seen. I remain in jaw-dropping awe at the glory of nature. And I feel so… see more…
October 10, 2004London, Ontario Hey folks, It’s a crazy time! I’ve been home in Ontario for a few days only and have spent this time madly packing up all my worldly goods and getting ready to head westerly for the winter (where I’m very much planning on hibernating.)

August 16, 2004Thunder Bay, ON You gotta love the Kingsway Motel. Every half hour or so the train rips by shaking the walls like crazy and throwing up a wild wind so strong you can feel it through your window in bed… Have been watching the Olympics in French (practicing understanding for my impending spring birthday trip to gaie… see more…
July 29, 2004London, Ontario Ladies and Gents, Lucky me has been relaxing at home for the last 10 days and it has been SOO good for me.
