Grew up in Milton Ontario, home of Canadian Astronaut Chris Hadfield. I have a passion for writing, travel, and extra large pizzas. Our dog Buckley deeply misses John Gibbons, and he wishes the Blue Jays would bring back take your dog to the park night. Speaking of dogs, would it kill them to serve some decent hot dogs at Rogers Centre? I’m a proud hater of J. P. Ricciardi, Black Jays Jerseys, and the New York Yankees.
