On our last visit to Vancouver we went for a walk along the seawall around Stanley Park. It is wonderful to take a leisurely stroll along the water’s edge in the bright sunshine – especially if there is still snow … Continue reading

Vancouver Winter
I’m tempted to say that a Vancouver winter is an oxymoron,but that isn’t really fair. Someone recently told me that in southern California, winter is that season when it might rain. Winter in Vancouver, on the other hand, is the … Continue reading
Obsession
When something captures my imagination, it tends to capture it completely. I’ve been told it is “part of my charm”. Thank heavens Jan sees it that way, because it’s all too easy to see how someone could find it incredibly … Continue reading

It was minus 15 degrees (near zero Fahrenheit) when I woke up, and 25 degrees (mid 70’s Fahrenheit) when I went to bed. Some travel was involved. In fact, quite a bit of travel. Other than airports and airplanes, the … Continue reading
Who Would Have Guessed
The ice sculpture competition at Winterlude attracts artists from around the world. You have the usual suspects for ice sculpture – Canada, USA, Russia and such – but the competition also attracts artists from less obvious places. Like Japan, where … Continue reading
