My series on the EP Ranch in Alberta, Canada, goes Hollywood on Sept 5th as I post the use of the ranch as a film location. It was first used for some of the scenes in the western silent film The Calgary Stampede back in 1925. Recently, it was used as one of the locations for Clint Eastwood's award-winning film Unforgiven.

Join me at the Heroes, Heroines and History blog for photos, a video, and more information about the Movie Location EP Ranch.

Cheesy Bird Videos

3/21/2018

 
Cheesy Bird Videos is my post over at the Inkwell today. Just a few brief videos to show our feathered friends doing the same kinds of things that people do...like popping out and scaring others...or being a bully...nothing highly emotional that will take the edge off your day, just a few minutes to clear your mind as you go.
​

All of the videos are shown at normal speed, and then slow motion so you can see what really happened. Not award worthy. Simply entertaining.

​You can see them at

Video Wassailing at the Inkwell

11/19/2014

0 Comments

 
So what does the 1949 version of the movie Little Women, the 1963 Christmas with the Chipmunks Vol. 2 album, a vintage video game, waffles, beans, children singing, and Christmas lights all have in common?

I'm featuring them on my post, It's A-Wassailing not A-Waffling today as they all contain a version of the Christmas song, Here We Come A-Wassailing.

I'm a bit worried about the Christmas in the desert one though as I'm sure someone will deem it is in poor taste, and although a small part of me agrees, I've raised four kids, 2 of them boys, and I love hearing them laugh, especially over natural and innocent incidents. 

Anyway, if you want to share your thoughts, head on over to Inkwell Inspirations and see for yourself. 

Here We Come A-Wassailing is the title of my latest story which is found in A Cup of Christmas Cheer Volume 4 Heartwarming Tales of Christmas Present, Guideposts Books, Oct 2014.   Check out my story page for more info.
