Getaways - Family Time on Quadra Island - (USA)
When I sit down to plan a bit of a family escape , my mind has always wandered toward the west side of Vancouver Island. With all of its tide pooling, surfers and sea life, the West Coast has its beauty. But, lately, I’ve been dreaming spending some serious time on another island . The northern islands - Quadra, Cortes, Sointula to name a few - are hot on my list to do some serious exploring of this year. First stop - Quadra Island . I’ve been hearing rumblings, since we moved

Leisurely: Broomball - (USA)
This is the start of a new column for us here at We Love DC. We’re going to do pieces on a lot of the different “leisure sports leagues” that are organized here in this area. Sure, some of them will be more leisurely than others, and our starting sport is certainly one of the more intense ones. Are you in a leisure sports league? Are you interest in fame and fortune, though legally we can guarantee neither? Email us with your story at tom at welovedc dot com. Swinging by tbridge The drive u

To the Sisters Go the Spoils - (USA)
This past Saturday was the 6th Annual Dodecathelon, the 12 event competition created by my husband to be held on his birthday every year. This is the 4th one that I have attended. The last two years, I have come in 3rd place. There was a little strategy involved but I mostly attribute my placement victory to little more than being there all day and not getting too drunk to move. I have never expected to win because my mister’s male friends are generally very competitive and a couple of them ha

Big Family Games Review (Wii) - (USA)
The Wii has entirely new genres of games. For example, there’s the mini-game collection that involves swinging the Wii Remote like a bat genre. There’s also the mini-game collection that involves swinging the Wii Remote like you’re throwing a ball genre. Big Family Games falls in the latter genre. There are 24 games in Big Family Games, but just about all of them are variants of “throw something at something using an underarm throw.” None of them are remotely as entertaining as Wii Spor

Teixeira’s A Stick Ball Wizard? - (USA)
Via the Tampa Tribune : Here’s a traffic delay more at home in Brooklyn than Tampa: 9th Avenue will be shut down Friday between Republica de Cuba and 13th Street because of a stickball game. That’s right. A film crew will be on hand to capture the 90-minute promotional event by Yahoo! Sports, dubbed as “old school” versus “new school,” or stickball veterans against upstarts. Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira is expected to play, although it’s questionable whether the Annapolis, Md.,-bo

Why I moved heaven and earth to build a backyard bocce court. - By Alex Heard - Slate Magazine - (USA)
The word has gone around via neighborhood drumbeat that there's this long, green, rectangular thing in my backyard that looks like an Area 51 landing strip. Most people have heard of bocce even if they've never played it, and they're curious. So, they come

What's New? - (USA)
February seems to force us to think up new things to do. Since the weather is usually less than inviting, we bury ourselves indoors and brain storm ideas to fight the long winter boredom. Last week, the kids and I created Tennis Bocce Ball. I have to admit, we kinda stole the idea from our Wii summer sports 2 game. What we did is gather four tennis balls from the garage. We marked one for each player and one for the bocce ball. We then just tossed the bocce ball around the house and

K2 X Original Penguin – Winter 2009 – Limited Edition Snowboarding Pack - (USA)

In this collaboration, the brands have created a set of high-end all-terrain snowboots, binding and snowboard. This matrimony unites K2’s cutting edge technology with Origin

My Quarter Century - (USA)
When they write the book of my life, what section will I be in? Mystery? Horror? Romance? Or just misfiled and jammed in the back under military history? -Samantha, Samantha Who? Last weekend I celebrated turning a quarter of a century. I know that for some of my readers, this seems pretty young, but for me, it’s a milestone birthday. In my young life, I’ve experienced many ups and downs. I’ve survived some atrocious relationships, over ten different moves (all after I graduated high school),

Gluten-Free Summer Camps - (USA)

Even in the small subcategory of GF-friendly camps, parents and children have a wide range of options. Camp WeeKanEatit!! of

Tailgating at FDR Park in Philly - (USA)
When it comes to tailgating, I love the food, the friends, the lawn games, and the random interactions with strangers. But let’s face it, I’m really here for the booze - everything else is a plus. In my opinion, some of the best tailgates can be totally impromptu. Stopping for a case of Miller Lite and a Styrofoam cooler and breaking out cornhole in a parking lot can be a great time. But there is something very rewarding about a tailgate done right. And that is what I have been in search of ev
