As I prepared for bed on this cold Saturday night giving baths to the kids being thankful I had a warm house, I looked outside to my front sidewalk to see in insanely huge crowd jumping up and down and a really loud fiddle blaring wildly in the darkness.  I thought this might be a good opportunity to photograph something, so I grabbed my trusty Canon and sprinted outside.  Who should I see but some famous dude named Ashley MacIsaac going nuts on a violin in the middle of Main Street in lil ol’ Jordan, Ontario!  He’s still at it as I write this!  Of course one can hardly notice him with the huge parka, but 3 or 4 hundred people can’t be wrong right?  Great party going on and some really funky ice sculptures too – it’s the Ice Wine festival held in our little town each year at this time!

Yes, every now and then we like to practice our acting skills and some people actually go for it!  Here’s our latest appearance on Sympatico.ca (as of January 3/12).  Yes it really is us and our little dude Rian arguing over a utility bill.  Kinda sad we’re starring in “money issues that can kill your marriage” but we’re still good with each other – just acting (in case you’re checking this out Mom!)  Now, I’m off to check out the alien corpse story – fascinating!!
