A blog full of memories
Well, this was going to be a blog entry about the spontaneous McCrae reunioun we had over the Christmas Holidays, but I can’t find my pictures. I’m annoyed. I usually don’t lose my pictures. When I went back to the Yukon this Christmas, I phoned my friend Yvonne. We arranged to have lunch at the …
When I lived in Whitehorse (in the 1980s), I worked as a waitress at McCrae’s Chinese Restaurant. Whenever I go back, I make sure to call my friend Yvonne and we usually have lunch or breakfast or just get together to have some fun. This year, in addition to having a bit of a McCrae …

The rest is marketing.” It’s really ridiculous actually. This soap is for your head hair. This soap …
I’ve been depressed lately–ever since the middle of February actually. It started with eating too much chocolate the week of Valentine’s Day.

The main guy at Urban Yukon left me a comment the other day, reminding me that there is already a site where you can see what other Yukoner’s have to say about life, the universe, and the grand state of the Canadian Winter Games. Check it out: urbanyukon.com.
I’m inviting my readers in the Yukon to submit to this blog their stories, pictures, and video clips of their experiences of the Canadian Winter Games. It will be interesting to see what pure Yukoners have to say about all the excitement as well as it will give my readers in other parts of the …
