There was drama & danger when Brodi Beasley’s bull ride was interrupted when the bull went after the flank man who ended up trapped against the fence at the Royal Rodeo. I guess the bull had beef!

I tell myself every year at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, "don't photograph the Super Dogs, don't photograph the Super Dogs"
But, Doggone it! I can't stay away!

One of the most moving Remembrance Day stories I did was about the Heroes of Howland, a short block where men were lost during WWI.

I didn’t get a chance to sightsee while in Los Angeles, covering the Blue Jays in the World Series, except for after game 5 I did rush up to the Griffith Observatory for a quick visit and look at the lights of the city from above.

The Toronto Blue Jays set the tone of the game early with Davis Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero Jr each hitting solo homers three pitches into the game.
