About Me

My photo
The Blog Fodder
Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada
Husband, father, step-grandfather of four and grandfather of one, retired agricultural consultant and beef cattle specialist, dog owner, amateur wood butcher, point and shoot photographer, history and current events buff and wandering soul who has at last found home and happiness in Ukraine. Fully registered as a permanent resident, who unfortunately looks like his passport picture, this is my new home, having married a wonderful woman. I have two daughters in Canada and their three granddogs and one daughter in London. Also, an "adopted" daughter (step-DIL) and Step-son and his wife and two lovely granddaughters here in Ukraine. My son, also in Canada, and his partner presented me with a Hingston grandson. His partner has two teenagers to whom I am now step grandfather. I am totally happy. We are back in Regina since 2022 as Russia is waging an aggressive war against Ukraine
