Twenty-four hours is a lot of time to kill. Tomorrow, a life will hang in the balance. "Watermelon Row," a suspenseful, intricately plotted novel, tracks a day in the life of three men on the brink of violence and ruin. It tails Ed Harrison, a tough old man in his seventies, Scott Venn, a yuppie lawyer/sports agent, and Peter James, an unemployed loser, surveilling their dubious stories 'round the clock, from the relative sanctuary of their own beds to the place where they all fell most at home: The Rail?their favourite strip club?and their stage-side seats in "watermelon row." Strangers whose lives curiously dovetail, each man needs to escape himself. In booze. In the illusion of sex. But, hellbent on self-destruction, somebody goes too far. In the tradition of Martin Amis's "Success" and John O'Brien's "Leaving Las Vegas," Michael Holmes offers a brutally candid view of desperate living. "Watermelon Row" is both haute noir, and a work of surprising beauty and grace.

They say that patience is a virtue. How true that is, especially when it comes to watching and enjoying the amazing wildlife that one can see at the Prince Albert National Park in Saskatchewan. I certainly enjoyed many magical experiences as I watched how amazing the wildlife was. From otters to minks and from beavers to black bears, not to mention groundhogs and wolf pups. There are amazing birds that one can see, from American white pelicans to belted kingfishers to the amazing fishing ability of the great blue heron, even ospreys, bald eagles, and merlins. It was amazing how much wildlife I was able to see by just being at the Waskesiu River. Even though I had to spend from one to almost three hours every day, it was certainly worth my time to be able to enjoy animals in their natural surroundings and to see the amazing abilities that they possess.
