It has been a very cool May in these parts; normally I’d be wearing shorts and short sleeves by at least the second week of the month. This year however, we have continued to see night time temperatures down to as low as 10C, with day time highs rarely getting above 22. The past few …
I find it humorous and at times, a bit frustrating when communicating with others about the history of Ireland. It’s a complex history and one can go back to many different points in history to justify their beliefs and thoughts. In some ways, it’s a bit weird that people are still arguing about things that …

“I’ve had a few good hamburgers here in Greece, but mostly they have not been that great – the one I enjoyed here was perhaps the best so far in Greece!” We had to make a run to Lavrio for more propane for our Provence gas heater and decided that we’d grab a bite to …
It’s been pretty cold in our part of Greece, although admittedly, not as cold as I have experienced in many parts of Canada. But where I am located, the winds can whip off the sea for days without a break at 40 kmh with gusts up to in excess of 60 kmh during this time …

The RCMP officers ran toward me and put me under arrest. Was my life over, with this arrest that involved a pistol in my carry-on luggage at the Toronto international airport?
