Happy to spend time together after not seeing each other for several years! #oldfriends @mysticmonk2For Halloween, some of my Religion and Society students dressed up as the most important lessons from class.

Her music has narrated every move, road trip, heartbreak, and big moment in my life. Tonight I saw her perform at Upper Canada Playhouse in my hometown. It was so cool to see her on the same stage that I did theatre and improv as a kid. As always she was witty, genuine, and enchanting. This may or may not be the perfect #thanksgiving weekend. #darwilliams #home #stlawrenceacousticstageAdvanced polls. #hometovote #election43 #wethreekingsActivities
