Well, on Friday night Cole and Lexi came over for a sleep over. We hung out at my place, and then went down to Granville Cinemas to see Over the Hedge. I have to say, that’s the one saving grace for movies these days — that the animated shows still have heart [...]

Camping in the United States
So, this weekend I decided to leave the city life behind and join my dad and Cathy for a few days in the wilderness down south.? The destination was a little place along the ocean called Fort Casey, near Deception Pass, Washington.? I had a great time, consuming an ample amount of alcoholic [...]

My First Canon L-Series Lens
I’m now the proud owner of my first L-series lens: the Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0L. I’m just charging my 20D now, and then I’m heading out for a couple hours of shooting to see what this puppy can do (or can’t do maybe).

I went for a quick walk after that 70’s show finished. I managed to grab a few shots of the sun going down, and after, walked barefoot in the sand for a while.

It started as a simple “just one drink, it won’t kill you,” and finished sometime around 4am as I passed out on the couch.? The good news [...]

Mother’s Day

The Vancouver Car Show
I went to the Compact Sports Car show at BC Place stadium today with Brennen and Dave. I had never been to a car show before, if you can really call it that. The focus seems to be more on the car-models than the cars themselves. It was a pretty good time [...]
