St. Patrick’s Day, Vancouver Style, Thanks to The Irish Heather

While I would have loved to have spent St. Patrick’s Day in a pub in Ireland, I am happy to say I at least celebrated it in an authentic Irish Pub, thanks to Vancouver‘s The Irish Heather.

 

 

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Is Somebody Singing Chris Hadfield and Barenaked Ladies?

It’s a proud day to be Canadian, thanks to Chris Hadfield and Ed Robertson of the Barenaked Ladies, with the debut of their song sung between the International Space Station and Planet Earth (specifically from Canada).  Have you heard Is Somebody Singing?

 

 

If ever there was a song worthy of Tunes From the Road this is it!  Beautiful!

Curious how they prepared?  Here it is, thanks to CBC Radio (for whom our storytellers love):

 

 

Love and Light,

Father Christmas the Morning After a Canadian Snow Storm

This my friends is the Canadian version of Father Christmas, Chanukah Harry, or whatever Festive Jolly Soul you celebrate at this time of year, the morning after a snow storm …

 

Must say I was happy to see this Jolly Soul spreading Festive Cheer today!

Must say I was happy to see this Jolly Soul spreading Festive Cheer this morning!

 

There was not a more beautiful creature to be seen for miles around, than he, as he pulled into our driveway this morning.  Spreading as he traveled, not only white mists of snow, but the true gift of the Holiday Season, the gift of being neighbourly and helping others.

Keep Exploring Canada
