    The Possession: Don’t Listen to the Naysayers

    There are a lot of films released each year that, some may say, are “horror films”.  Most of the “scary” flicks that are around are slasher films; the kind of gore-fest that’s certainly got a place.  I’m a bit of a purist when it comes to the darker side of film.  Give me a good…

    The Most Determined Fish

    Every year millions of Salmon struggle to swim up the Adam’s River so they can spawn.  It’s remarkable to see – and that kind of dedication is almost impossible to comprehend.  When you see the river, it’s teaming with bodies and it becomes clear, quickly, that many of the salmon won’t make it. Nature, at…

    Cambodia: Stay Off the Tourist Path

    In 2005 my husband, Joel, and I traveled to Cambodia. Joel was a seasoned traveler. I had been to a few countries in Europe and on a lot of camping trips in Canada but that was the extent of my experience. I was willing and excited! During our stay in Siem Reap – where the…

    Tranquille Isn’t What It Used To Be

    If you speak to anyone who has lived in Kamloops for a while they can direct you toward “Tranquille farms”. If you ask locals what kind of place “Tranquille” is you will get a variety of answers. Built in the early 1900s, “Tranquille” has had a few incarnations over the years. It was originally called…

    Change is in the air!

    My geography on the internet has changed slightly! Those articles etc. that I was writing and posting on another magazine and here – are now just posted here. Not much of a change on the surface is it? Going to be a lot better for me though. Much less stressful and more rewarding.

    “The Cocktail Waitress” Serves It Up

    If you don’t know the name James M. Cain I’d be willing to bet money that you know the title “The Postman Always Rings Twice”.Cain authored his most well-known work in 1934 and it remains a much-loved work today. He penned many works although the most well know remain“Mildred Pierce” and “Double Indemnity”. Cain wrote right up until…

    Riding For MS & For Me

    C. Kinzie || Kamloops, BC I’m not an athlete by any stretch of the imagination. I was a dancer for over twenty-five years. Then I began to have problems with my knees. By the time I was 35 I had to retire from dancing because it caused me too much pain. That’s saying something when…

  • Actor Matt Cohen: Boxing, Being Positive and Toast

    Actor Matt Cohen: Boxing, Being Positive and Toast

    One of the things I always look forward to at “Supernatural” conventions is speaking with Matt Cohen. He was great on “Supernatural” as Young John Winchester but beyond that; he is a really great guy. Matt always seems to be the one who takes a moment to say “hi” to a fan who looks shy.…

  • Kim Rhodes: I Just Have Me

    Kim Rhodes: I Just Have Me Kim Rhodes was the first guest to appear onstage at the “Salute to Supernatural” Creation Convention this past weekend in Vancouver. It’s a tough spot, opening the convention, it’s tougher when you’re one of the handful of female actors who get invited. The thing about Kim Rhodes though, is that…
