SSAB - August 3, 2026

Welcome to August and welcome to the long weekend here in the Canada, and some sort of trade deadline is today… whatever. GET OUTSIDE!

Cooling off and there goes summer, mosquitos and wasps on order!

Shouldn’t have brought a book with me, the library has lots! What am I reading now??

And workouts in… outside? Winnipeg has outdoor gyms?! Yes.
