Note to self: camping with a toddler and a baby when the sun doesn’t set until 10pm is an absolute disaster.

I’ll just be over here weeping to the Puffin Rock theme song.

The province is holding an an update on the wildfire situation at noon today. We’re carrying it live on CBC radio. 89.3fm, 990am. Manitoba’s a tinder box right now stay safe out there.

Spotted in a Morden, Manitoba hotel elevator.

If you’re in Canada Google maps tells you the Gulf of Mexico is parenthetically the Gulf of America.

My kid is so stoked to grow up and I don’t have the heart to tell him it’s just paperwork and small talk.

You too!

Merry Christmas Eve! I’m hosting up to speed on CBC radio this afternoon and I promise it’ll be cute.

Bahaha. Awesome. I’ve got a great personal vasectomy story if you want me to come on and tell it.

More men without kids are getting vasectomies, doctors say. Here's why | CBC News In over 30 years of practice, Dr. Errol Billinkoff rarely saw a man without kids come into his Winnipeg clinic to get a vasectomy. But since the pandemic began, he says it’s become an almost daily occ...

Went for a vasectomy . . . Stumbled upon a news story.

We need to talk more about how goddamn hard it is to build an actual snowman. The conditions need to be just right and even then, the big ball will probably break on you at some point be covered in dirt.

I drove extra safely later that day.

Just heard on CBC Manitoba Radio - sounds like multi-vehicle crash on Abinojii Mekinah at St Mary’s Road - westbound/curbside lane?
Be careful out there. Drive slowly. Be safe.

Not sure whether watching the Christmas episode of The Bear right now will get me into the holiday spirit or not.

Can’t believe it took until my 30’s to start cooking pasta IN the sauce instead of boring old water.

Had to read this headline twice this morning. What a story. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Live radio is great. Here’s Jerry Sereda, playing for us on Information radio live at RRC. What a dude.

Inforad is live from RRC Polytechnic this morning! Tune in! 89.3fm 990am or watch on the CBC Manitoba YouTube page. We’ve got live music from emerging country star/rrc employee, Jerry Sereda

The Seine itself is still pretty open. The single track along it is all kinds of pretty too. Time to put the phone away and enjoy the run home. Thanks for coming along.

Here’s where the Seine meets the red (aka the little forks)

Big shout out to the massive cottonwoods in Whittier park. Who says BC gets to have all the big trees?

The single track along the Red at Whittier park is picture perfect right now.

Watching this ice patch break apart under the Provencher bridge is a whole vibe. Bit of a low key surprise ending too.

The historic port in #winnipeg at the forks is looking tidy. Things are pretty open though still once you get into the red.

So far things are freezing pretty smoothly, except for right around the hugo docks and a couple other patches along Armstrong point. Now, onto the Red.

Good news. The river is low enough that you can run along the shore all the way from Wolseley to the forks. There’s a few rocky bits and trees to hop over though.

I’m off for a run along the three main rivers in Winnipeg to see how they’re freezing up. Disclaimer, none are safe to walk on yet. Part 1: The Assiniboine.

Darwin Deez has new music and listening to it made me instantly regress to my early 20s.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a suite of new measures designed to alleviate some of the affordability pressures people have experienced in the post-#COVID era, including a GST holiday for 2 months on some eligible goods and services.
