This has been making the rounds on the internet, but on July 25th, Vancouver experienced a crazy weather day, especially during the end of the day when a freak thunder storm hit the city and not only was that strange, but check out the freaky colour of the sky as the sun sets.
Not only did mother nature give everyone a show, but the HSBC Celebration of Lights also took place that evening.
You will have to excuse the “Christmas Music”.
Alas I missed it as I was in Whistler for “Chill on the Hill”.

This past weekend my sisters, Gladys and Maria, with my niece Amanda flew in from Toronto to spend the weekend in Vancouver helping me celebrate my 41st birthday. It’s hard to believe that all of us haven’t been together for one of our birthdays in over 8 years.
This was Maria and Amanda’s first time [...]

In my 8 years that I’ve lived in Vancouver I had yet to visit VanDusen Botanical Gardens. I had always wanted to get my camera and walk around the 55 acres and just go crazy, but never just got off my butt and just went. It’s interesting to note that the lands was the Shaughnessy [...]

Yes folks, the MO is now 27 days old. 27 days of growing facial hair from scratch (ignore the fact that I had a goatee and shaved it all off).
This has been an amazing month of Movember. I’ve had so much fun participating in this great cause to raise awareness for men’s prostate cancer.
Alas [...]
