🇨🇦🦃 Fun fact: Canada celebrated the first recorded Thanksgiving in North America back in 1578, when Sir Martin Frobisher gave thanks in Newfoundland.

The U.S. Thanksgiving tradition came later in 1621 with the Pilgrims and Wampanoag.

Now you know! 😁

We found oranges from Australia 🇦🇺. The green colour has nothing to do with ripeness, but rather protection from the sun. Basically sunscreen. 🤓

Best part of the day was hearing that Amazon/MGM has finally green lit a new Stargate series and bringing back original Writers, producers like Canadian Brad Wright and Joseph Mazzolli. Series to take place in same timeline as SG1,SGA & SGU and will not be a reboot. Woohoo.

My beautiful is working late so I made her dinner anyway for when she gets home. Roasted Chicken breast with Three Cheese Orzo. Side of pickles and Kalamata Olives. Breast covered in Swiss Chalet Sauce. Meal is 💯 Elbows Up. Meal sourced from 🇨🇦🇳🇿🇮🇹🇬🇷🇮🇳
And ZERO 🇺🇸 products. Nada. Zilch.

Favourite film so far from the festival has been Snow Leopard Sisters. A wild emotions ride from one extreme to the next. Very well edited and filmed. 🍿🥤

Clouds adding some ambience to the skies tonight on my walk home from work.

This little unit has peaked my curiosity indeed. Specs are decent, though no mention yet of support for multiple accounts, whether or not I can change cloud services. Will have to see when more information is released.

I see a lot of snow pictures these days on social, so here’s a shot I took about three years ago on an excursion into the Alberta foothills and caught this hunt in action. 👍
