Travel Hats for Style and Sport with Tilley Endurables-Raffia-Hat-featured

Patio Heaven at Smackwater Jack’s Taphouse Grand Bend

Smackwater Jacks Restaurant located on the water's edge of Grand Bend Ontario

I was sitting in the ambulance with a calm anxious feeling. There were no sirens blaring, and we were travelling at average speeds. There was no emergency or panic.
