Wear Sunscreen
Published on November 28, 2016 by Don Anderson
Recently,  a life-threatening heart attack toppled our bike-riding friend after he’d crossed into the United States at Point Roberts. For another, the unexpected bleed of a tiny aneurysm in her brain caused emergency surgery in Austria.

They both received world-class care in cardiology and neurology, respectively, from teams very nearby. Coincidence? Nah, let’s go with gigantic levels of good luck.

The song says “wear sunscreen”, which is valuable advice. How about adding: “buy travel insurance”, whether you leave Canada for an hour to buy gas or travel thousands of kilometres to see the world.

Also, make sure to have a Will, and well organized finances back at home.

Baden-Powell said “be prepared”. Taking time over the next few weeks and months may be your best decision for this coming winter.

Other than some powder skiing, of course.
