Taking a look at the calendar, there’s so much I want to do in 2014… oh wait… seriously? How can it be 2015 already? Well that’s crap-tastic. Guess 2014 wasn’t a total write-off though. The release of the 2nd book in the “UA” series didn’t perform as well as hoped, but there are still true fans out there who absolutely loved the novel and can’t wait for the next instalment! My beautiful wife and I spent our 2nd anniversary in Niagara Falls, the Canadian side. One of the few places that still amazes me of the power of nature. And if you love Italian food as much as I do, be sure to try Bravo Pizzeria-Grill. They stone-cook their pizzas, and make everything so fresh that you feel teleported right to Italy itself! We also spent some time with another avenue of nature, as my wife and I took a weekend up to a zoo bed & breakfast called Jungle Cat World up in Orono, Ontario. You really get see another side of the world’s wonderful creatures. Everyday at 1:00 there’s a feeding tour, and wow can those big cats sure eat! The next day, after our big breakfast consisting of fresh farm eggs, bacon, toast and local fruit, we headed out for our “behind the scenes” tour! Our first furry little friends to meet were the Ruffled and Ringtail Lemurs. These berry-loving primates were so curious yet carefree, and definitely loved the attention. The next not-so-furry critter, was a black and white Tegu. It’s always fun when you get to meet something that was once a dinosaur! Right? Then we took a little trip to Australia to feed and greet a Kangaroo! Last but not least was the Serval cat. A smaller African cat, this gorgeous feline was so relaxed and friendly. Definitely a highlight of my life, and you should make this spot a highlight of yours! As well, this year the new site was put up, a book trailer is on it’s way, and due to life getting crazy at the end of the year, the 3rd installment of the “UA” series is slightly off schedule for release.
You have to take the good with the bad, but remember, the good always far outweighs the negatives. So continue to find the positive in this world of hard knocks, and let’s keep our heads up! I hope you all have had an awesome year, and let’s make 2015 even more “Ultimate”! D. R. J. Borne Mission Blog Complete
