Every picture I take has a story behind it. This picture is of Charlene, but the story is more about disobedience than enjoyment. It is such an iconic figure in the Toronto skyline that we can see the CN Tower from over 50 km away…
We went to Alaska last year. It was phenomenal! I wonder if we will ever have another trip like that again. We had a list of things we wanted to see during our six-week journey to Alaska and back, including animals. At this point in…
