Spring (In My Step?) & Other Spring Things

Spring In My Step?

By God's grace, I have graduated from a bed of pain to being able to move around again. You can say that I have a 'spring in my step,' just in time for Spring. My bulbs are coming up in my yard, so I am hopeful.

I have new meds and new treatments, but I am still in a 'holding pattern' to figure out what's happening in my body. Hopefully, an MRI will provide insight into this before the end of next month. At least, with my new meds, I can think again. I can sit at my desk and put in a few hours of work.

Spring Tour (Or Summer & Fall, too)

Those of you who have been around for a while are aware that I have been organizing Ottawa Tours for the last few years. I provided accommodations, meals, and many hours of 'teaching on the go.' Unfortunately, this year, I won't be able to offer that service. But the Lord helped me to pivot to something NEW.

While flat on my back in horrible agony, with the Lord's help, I was determined not to let my condition get the better of me. I propped up my tablet on my knees and imagined leading a group on a walking tour so they could walk in the footsteps of the Protestants who helped to lay Ottawa's foundations.

COMING SOON... my new 2-Day Walking Tour of Ottawa book.​

With the help of this book, you will learn about the legacies of JR Booth, Henry and Erskine Bronson, John A. Pearson, Thomas McKay, John A. Macdonald, John McCrae, John Redpath, and John By.

Some features of the book are:

• Spiral bound for easy use
• Small enough to fit in a purse or backpack
• Colour photos
• Maps
• Suggested parking
• Short bios

... and so much more.

You can pre-order your copy at Introductory Pricing.​

Navigating Ottawa

With the new 'Stay In Canada' promotions because of the Trump Tariffs, you will be guided to economical shared accommodations for families, links to other interesting things to do in Ottawa, and suggestions for the most time-efficient schedule to see as much as possible in Ottawa.

You can now plan for a week-long vacation in Ottawa, combining other events with our Walking Tour. You may not know it, but Ottawa is the most museum-dense city in Canada. Your kids can have a blast. And if you are into camping, there are many campsites located approximately 30 minutes away from downtown Ottawa.

Features of Ottawa Walking Tour​

• Free Scheduling help to navigate Ottawa (with a group purchase)
• Economical accommodation & meal-planning recommendations.
• Museum recommendations
• Go for a few days, stay a week.

Book of Biographies (Coming Soon)

Also coming soon is a book of biographies of these nation builders - 'Protestant Legacies That Endured - Ottawa.' That will complement the tour to give you more details about the lives of those trailblazers.

In the future, we hope to publish the biographies of Protestants who laid enduring legacies in Toronto and Montreal.

I will be in touch soon with other projects I created while bedridden.

If you know someone interested in taking their family to Ottawa, please share this information and encourage them to 'Join our Community' to learn more about our Protestant heritage.

One Last Thing... Elections

I am not here to tell you how to vote. But you are responsible before God for the decisions you make. Ask yourself if the person you will vote for stands for Godly principles and righteous judgements. Will he/she protect faith, family, and freedom?
