No toil nor labor fear

My ancestors were among those who helped establish the settlements in Stirling, Raymond and Lethbridge in Alberta way back in the day. We still celebrate Dominion Day (my mom was a bit stubborn about the change to Canada Day). We celebrated my eighth birthday in Waterton National Park. Heck, my brother and I even marched in the parade for the Calgary Stampede!

So take off you hoser, eh!
 

For your convenience

That could have been handy.
 

Important distinction

Many of my cartoons are drawn from real-life experiences.

Don't ask.

 

Sketchbook: We welcome you today!

We had a linger longer "saladpalooza" and someone brought a green Jello salad with shredded carrots and pineapple. Was it sincere, or was it ironic?

And since you asked, yes, someone else brought funeral potatoes. Does that count as potato salad?
 

Well done!

According to my ancestors' journals, the crickets ate everything.
 

Pix or it didn't happen (it's the Reel thing)

Have you ever seen a picture of Brigham Young smiling? It's a little unsettling.
 

The timing stinks

Imagine fleeing from Nauvoo and getting stuck in a construction queue or being shunted off to a detour!

Maybe that's why they fled Nauvoo in the dead of winter!
