  • The Canary Islands: Flying in the Face of Covid

    by Barry Pomeroy ...
    My forty-day trip involved both Silvio and the Canary Islands. The outside world was still struggling with Covid, but the Canaries were a kind of haven. We moved in a complacent bubble through historical villages and freshly painted hotels and poolside bars. We traveled to lush and beautiful La Palma and more rustic and traditional La Gomera, but mainly we spent our days on Tenerife. As we had on ... Read more

    by Barry Pomeroy ...
    My latest trip to South East Asia differed from other trips in that I was older, my traveling companion was younger, and Thailand had changed.

We laid our plans a few months in advance, but like most trips, it ... Read more

  • A Gentle End: Life after Apocalypse

  • The Return of the Sword: A Tale of Betrayal and Loss

    by Barry Pomeroy ...
    When I was holding the sword in my hand again, I could only guess where it had been. Its faded, cracked sheath and rusty blade told a story of neglect, but beyond that was another tale of how it had disappeared, how its absence had been explained, and how its return undermined that version of events. When I told my friends the story about the sword's disappearance, they consistently pled that it ... Read more

  • A Storied Winnipeg: Fables and Local Legends

    The stories of Winnipeg are as varied as the city itself. Caught in the middle of the continent by the amber of its past glory and its current penury, Winnipeg occupies a rare and beautiful place in the Canadian landscape. Winnipeg is defined by its main road, which merely circles the city, and its tottering buildings sitting on pylons driven deep into the mud of the ancient lake-bed. The ... Read more
