Perfect View

Photo credit Sofia Petelina

I have been doing a lot of outdoor activity, even more than ever lately.

Recently I have been trying to explore, or have been given the opportunity to explore some areas around the place I grew up, weekes Saskatchewan.

I have many friends and family that have reconnected lately, some new ones also.

I could speak about the ones I choose not to associate with, by why even go there.

I think All of the friends and family I’ve been reconnecting with have been put there for a reason, for us to reconnect and enjoy the perfect view.

The perfect view, heaven on earth, Gods country, whatever we wish to call it.

So when times are tough, pick your head up no matter how heavy it may seem, get your camera, or just get out there and enjoy what you might consider the perfect view.

It’s amazing how Mother Nature can keep us all on the positive happy path, not in our minds on the negative one

Everyone enjoy the perfect view today Eh?!

18 and Life - what the song means to me

I remember rocking out to this song when I was a teenager, cruising in my car and banging my head to Skid Row, and the parties we had and the good times back then. It seemed like it was so cool to be bad.

But this song also has other values for me, as I have dealt with the consequences of what alcohol can bring, Broken homes, broken bones, near death, depression, anger, over night jail time, and the list goes on and on.

I also have a son that has spent sometime behind bars for his consequences with drugs and alcohol, and the last three years I haven’t been able to see him much because of it. It sucks and it’s sad, but I have a higher power and that is GOD that helps me keep it real in life now.

18 and Life is what can happen if you turn to the dark side in Life. We all do bad shit in life but some of us get caught, and eventually we all suffer the consequences, whether it’s jail for real, or jail in our minds.

18 and Life new single release announcement

It blows my mind to think that I’m announcing the release the song “18 and Life” today. 

I look back a long time ago rocking out to this song by one of my favorite Canadian artists, Sebastian Bach of the band Skid Row.  Never thought I’d be releasing the song as a country artist all these years later.

Goes to show, you just never know what can happen in life and music.

You can preorder the single here, and thanks in advance.

Motorcycles

I grew up riding motorcycles.

Most of them that I had my dad could never afford expensive ones.  So most of the time, we’d be pushing the motorcycle rather than actually riding the motorcycle.

We come from a mechanical family.  My dad would hand me a wrench and say, here’s how you do it, go to it.

Fix it on your own because I don’t want to fix it when I get home.

I first got to buy my own when I was in my 40s, I guess.  I love it.

And hot girls love motorcycles.
