Camp Covid Retrospective

One year ago, I was holed up in the Ramada Plaza Downtown writing about isolation and COVID uncertainty—today, I’m back in lockdown, this time in my own basement, riding out another brush with ‘The Vid.’ Full-circle vibes, surgical gloves on standby, and yes, still saving the world one hardboiled egg at a time.

Alive and Well at Camp Covid

What started with a close contact and a couch at the studio quickly turned into a full-blown quarantine staycation—welcome to Camp Covid, Alberta-style.

Leaving Camp Covid

After weeks in isolation, ‘Camp Covid’ is finally in the rearview—bittersweet as it may be.
