A slow wander with Daffy around northern western Canada
I'm away again, no particular route in mind but some dates along the way for family events. The plan is to go north but who knows what might transpire considering wild fires and bad weather. I expect to be out of cell service often, so this blog will be posted sporadically. I do it for a personal journal and for family and friends who like to follow me vicariously. My photos are nothing special, just using my iPhone and sometimes my point-and-shoot, but if you're following along, I hope you enjoy!
