 Odysseus on the Camino

Posted on September 9, 2026September 9, 2026 by Julia

The swirly, whirly call to life, adventure and destiny.  It is the Odyssey and the Camino!  It is the voyage of discovery and the lure to the great life. Ah! I sigh.  Here I am, getting carried away again.  But how wonderful. We should get carried away with aspirations and thoughts of adventure

Turmoil

Posted on August 12, 2026August 12, 2026 by Julia

It is summer here in Edmonton in the centre of Alberta.  We have had much rain; the lake is filling with lovely fresh water, the trees are singing, the grass is so green. All is well in our little corner of the world, but I am not happy, because all is not well.

Living in Alberta, when it comes to contemplating a trip, we have two wonderful east-west perspectives

Wheels up!

Posted on May 28, 2026May 28, 2026 by Julia

At last, a follow-up to my previous blog, all about my search for a new car.  After the great soul search, research and going around in circles….Should it be a hybrid or full electric? I finally took the bull by the horns, or the steering wheel in my grip and decided on a full electric…

A new set of wheels – Maybe…

Posted on April 18, 2026April 18, 2026 by Julia

Where to start on this blog, which completely reflects my dilemma in my effort to find, decide and sort out a new car for me! OK, I know how lucky I am to be able to have a new car dilemma.  Yes, yes, I know.  But I don’t think I am being that extravagant.  My current…

Pilgrim delight

Posted on March 24, 2026March 26, 2026 by Julia

As I write this, I am following along – on Facebook – the brand-new Archbishop of Canterbury.  Sarah Mullally, the 106th in this role and the first woman.  As Archbishop of Canterbury, she is the leader of the Anglican Church of England and spiritual leader of the worldwide Anglican community, a first among equals.  This…

February be gone! March in March

Posted on February 28, 2026March 24, 2026 by Julia

As I wave February goodbye, I know I should have known better than to get into the February blues.  However sternly I gave myself pep talks, that February funk still managed to settle upon me. I do actually like winter, most of the time. I like the brisk weather; the dark nights help me sleep….

AI. You can be a bully, yet I love you too

Posted on February 5, 2026February 5, 2026 by Julia

I could have titled this My Love and Hate for AI, but that really would have been rather trite, so I have tied myself up in a few knots and come up with this heading, no resonance and sounding a bit codependent; which might of course be a wee bit true. Just a thought –…

The joy of being untidy

Posted on January 15, 2026January 15, 2026 by Julia

How marvelous that I can be a rebel by just being untidy!  If that’s all it takes, I feel I should take on bigger projects. Like how to convince Donald Trump to retire! I like my domestic surroundings to be quite neat.  Not antiseptic, I have many useful items and treasures around, but in their…

Camino Portugues – Take Two.

Posted on December 28, 2025December 28, 2025 by Julia

One of my Camino wisdoms (!) is that the walking is simple – it is all the organizing and managing of food, accommodation, and finding the way that is complicated
