CURSE of the NugNugs: A Camping Story

Well, it seems obvious that I've pretty much stopped posting here or making videos; I'm sorry but I guess I've been distracted by new things, one of which was writing and illustrating a children's picture book. I have no intention to take this blog down or anything - I mean, there's so much wisdom here that I feel I must maintain it!

Who knows, I might feel the writing or video itch again, and I'll need somewhere to scratch it!

Anyway, since the blog is still here, I might as well use it to plug my book. It is called CURSE of the NugNugs and was spawned by memories of being scared to go to the outhouse alone when I was little. That seed turned into a silly story I told my kids on a road trip. Now, 15 or so years later, that has turned into a book:

Encounters with Rantwick, episode Twenty Nine: Possum!

I had a really nice commute a while ago thanks to a few nice things happening. In this case I ended up recording myself telling the Rantwick clan all about it, and insodoing discovered I'm much more child-like in my enjoyments than I thought. It's all good though - being a little simpler can often result in being a little happier I think.

I hope you enjoy some of my newly minted rantwick family avatars; they were fun to make and work with. Here's the vid:

2022 King of Autumn

As my interactions with this blog seem to dwindle despite my best intentions, I still circle back when I have something good to post. A tree in fully furious fall foliage remains one of my favourite things. The King has been tricky this year, displaying a wide variety of colours. As is often the case he chose bright yellow underpinnings and a fierce reddish orange overcoat, but also stayed a little green a little long in some spots. I took these pictures weeks ago, but here they are, better late than never I hope.

Winter is pretty much here in London Ontario Canada, first decent snow fall came yesterday. I hope it provides me with some great video or at least inspiration to make me post some more. In the meantime be kind to yourself and others and if that is difficult, maybe hug a tree.
