Rivers: Sunburn

 My day in Rivers mostly sucked.  The co-op made me work outside.  Today, I got sunburned.  Probably served me right.



I did go to the provincial park for a brief visit.


During my break, I wandered the town.



The cool thing was the being at the old train station as a long freight train went by.






Do you see the sun burn?

Saturday 6:18 AM


 Today. Rivers. Beijing.  Tony will come with me. To Rivers that is.

Nice morning.  I can get my reading read and my Rosary prayed.  I don’t have to rush.

Thursday 6:00 AM: Online Day


 As always I’m blessed with a nice sunrise view.

Thursday, for now, will be my daytime online teaching day.  That is, I won’t take BSD bookings and just teach online.

So, at 6:30 AM, I’ll be talking to an IELTS student in Xinjiang.

Wednesday 9:00 PM Better Late than Never


 A cloudy day but she’s warming up.

I did my taxes on paper.  I wasn’t able to file them online because I wasn’t for some reason. Damn bureaucracy.  Mailed them out yesterday.

How has my sub teaching been going?  Well. I can’t say.

I got my third rosary:


Its beads are strictly used for praying the Hail Marys. The silver pendants are used for praying the Our Father. I will need to get the Rosary blessed.


George Fitton School


 The tree is obscuring the George Fitton School lettering.

I forgot to take a view photo this Wednesday morning. So. Later.

Last night was the last meeting of my RCIA group.  Maybe I will participate in a Book group next.  The last class did present some challenges for me to practice my faith.  I do need to practice the virtues more towards other people.  I forget about Tony sometimes.

Online wise:  Xinjiang, Alberta, Spain, Ontario, Chile.

Tuesday 6:12 AM: Accomplishing


 At 5:15 AM, one of my early AM contacts said he wanted to go back to bed.  I agreed with me, but now I am thinking that there is Accomplishing to be accomplished.

Monday 7:00 AM: Erickson Misc.


 Monday. Get my taxes done day.  Cross my fingers I can submit it with no hitches day.

Here is a compilation of driving video from Saturday.


I took an image of this barn on Sunday.  It is not too far from Erickson.


It is blurry but I hope you can read what the barn says.

And here is how I’m doing on Duolingo.
