Good morning, TammySue! Such a pretty song, and of course the title reminds me of our dear Delilah, who is no longer with us. 👋🎶☀️☕️✌️

Throwback to 13 years ago, attending the changing of the guard ceremony on Parliament Hill. Great pageantry and historic ceremony.

Charlie is 14, so I’m not sure how much longer he will be with us. I love my boy! At the cottage on the Madawaska River! 🥰😎

Alrighty, the week vacation at the cottage has begun. About 1.5 hrs NW of Ottawa, along the Mattawa River just outside of Calabogie. No whining kids, just loons, herons and motorboats! Edibles, gin & tonic and beer are on the agenda for this evening! 😎🍺🍹🇨🇦

Remembering our friend Jocelyne Couture-Nowak, who was murdered on April 16, 2007 during the Virginia Tech Massacre. Hard to believe it has been 19 years. Her family remains in our thoughts.....😪

Finally used my birthday present from my wife today; an hour long flight simulator at AviaSim in North Kanata. I flew an Airbus A320 from Ottawa to Montreal’s Pierre Elliot Trudeau Airport. What a blast….but my first landing was pretty hairy 😳😎

One of our research greenhouses at the IALR in Danville (VA), circa 2014. We had a program with the VNLA working on ornamental plant breeding.

We’re getting freezing rain now, and then the temperatures are dropping again. When we lived in Auckland, the winters alternated between sun/rain (like Vancouver or San Francisco). I was happy when we came home to a real winter with brisk winds and snowstorms! Branches laden with snow, love it!

On Remembrance Day, I’ll take the time to thank my family who served: Grandpa Harry Flinn (Canadian Expeditionary Force WWI), Uncle James Flinn (12th Canadian Tank Regiment WWII), Uncle Ed Flinn (Royal Canadian Artillery WWII), my Dad Stan Flinn (Royal Canadian Air Force - NATO & NORAD postwar).

Auckland, New Zealand. Tied with Vancouver, BC as the favourite city I’ve ever lived in. I’ve loved living in a city bounded by the ocean, and New Zealand was a beautiful, wonderful country.
