This is my contribution to the Lens-Artist Challenge for this week. In this challenge we are encouraged to pick a place we’ve travelled to that was memorable.

Today is Slice of life Tuesday. My family and I are headed back from a trip to Banff in Alberta, Canada. It was a great trip, one the I am happiest to have had the presence of all three of my adult and, almost adult, young men with us. All five of us agree that…

For anyone who has been to the island paradise of Bermuda, you will know that one of the preferred methods for getting around is the scooter. We have been to this island three times in thirty years. In that time, we’ve gone from renting and riding a scooter to using the buses, and most recently…
