View From My Porch

At the end of al long day stripping a dresser in preparation for painting, I needed some fresh air. This is from my front porch. And yes, the air was fresh.

Mobile Makeup


Yes folks, mobile makeup. This traveling band of ladies stopped downtown today and were offering free makeup to anyone bold enough to step into the truck and get it done. A picture was enough for me.

My Day at the Office

THe shipment of 50 Dell Desktop Computers arrived today, and we have no storage space for them. This is the Help Desk area. My office is the furthest open door you can see off in the distance.


Press either of these buttons and someone will come a runnin'. They're for deactivating or activating the fire suppression system depending on whether or not you're in the Server room when the alarm goes off. I advise staff to just high tail it out of there.

Long Bush

Ah, Vancouver on a rainy day. This is the landscape approach taken by CIBC outside their downtown office. I, of course, benefited by getting to continue my walk in the rain.

Waiting for the Bus


Nothing else happening here but what it says. And yes, I'm at the back of the line.

Shopping Cart of Love

I couldn't help but stop at this shopping cart sitting alone next to the bus stop. Apparently it's owner was long gone. Is that a water dish under the cart? It's certainly a stuffed toy IN the cart, as well as a bell shaped object. In the bottom section is a coffee maker.

Perhaps someone's home on wheels?

Maggie at the Window


This is Maggie. And this is her favorite place in the house....at the living room window. I was outside wondering if there was a picture on my doorstep that would make it into this journal. I turned around and there it was.
