Just work today...nothing exciting. and was too lazy to get out to take a photo.

This is a pic of my wall in my office. It is a huge beach picture and has been there since I brought it to PTP about 5 yrs ago. lol.

I thought it would be nice to see the beach everyday, even if you have to be inside.

This pic is not the best quality, but hints at what I wanted.

Mar 30th

Met up with a an old buddy of mine today. Beth.

We met @ MEC, and so while I was waiting for her, I went upstairs to the parking lot on the roof to get a photo of another WINDY day.

As you can see the flags are flapping for all their worth, happy to have something to do Im sure, as that was what they were made for!

I also got a 2nd photo on this day because I have always liked the look of the building across from MEC. I think it is the flower that makes me smile.

Mar 29th

Windy Windy.

Clouds have been blowing in & out for a couple days. The rain has been coming down sideways, and even some hail. weird.

The rain let up for a bit that enabled me to snap a quick shot.

Mar 28th

Here is a pic of my Olympic coin collection.

Im not sure how many coins there were released for the 2010 winter games, or which sports actually make up the set....but I managed to get 6.

So to me, it is a set, just got the last one today :)

Included in SP's set:

Men's & Women's Hockey and to me...that's gold!

Mar 27th

Went over to Tara's after work today.

We were up on her roof this evening waiting for 'Earth Hour'....we wanted to see if we would be able to notice any lights going out across the city. We especially had our eyes on the two ski hills you can see from her roof...but alas, nothing to be seen or noticed.

Only a nice tranquil sit out on the roof.

Mar 26th

...con't from the 25th.

Posting a pic that I like. So this is the photo of the day today.

Mar 25th

Went for a walk on my days off and snapped a bunch of pics...

so in no particular order I opted to post a couple that I liked.

Mar 24th

Another Grey day...

This photo is not very reflective of how I spent my day, or of me at all....which I think may be the point of the BLOG...however, I thought it was an ok shot on my walk today, so here is another random pic of Kits.

Mar 23rd

Grey day....

Caught two Canada Geese coming in for a landing to this pond in kits down by the waterfront, towards Granville Island.


They are pretty neat to get up close to, but not very friendly.


Im sure there are far better shots of these special birds....especially in Stanley Park.


But here is my shot for the day.

Mar 22nd

Back to normal life and normal work hours. ho hum boring.

This shot is me taking a moment to hang by myself, before going into work. This was @ the Library Square where many people sit and relax to have their lunch or sip a coffee. (which is strange because there are no tables or chairs, just steps to sit on, and it is slightly dirty and tons of birds. ha. whatever.

back to......just breath.

Mar 21st

The last day for the excitement, and all I could manage to snap a shot of was the outdoor rink @ Robson Square.

Clearly no one on it, I assume it was melting because of our mild weather. lol.

Sad it is all over, the Paralympics is closing up tonight, and that's all she wrote. Fun 2010 games!

Mar 20th

Random....

Didn't get much of a shot today with work and what not....so I got a late pic when I got home and went for a walk. It is a neighbourhood pub, fairly new. I like their sign, it is plain and kind of looks like the old bowling lanes.

Mar19th

More Pavilion hopping. Today was with my friend Wendy. We had planned to get in line and wait for the Ziptrek but it was a 5 hour wait, so we opted to mull about and take in some sights. The Ziptrek was set up so you could 'ZIP' across Robson St, and it was free, hence the long wait.

This is Wendy & I in Canada House. We got to take pics with the Olympic torches and Bobsleds.

Mar18th

Another Day in this beautiful city. Happy it wasn't raining! yeah!

This is walking over the bridge. A view of part of the beach going into English Bay.

Mar 17th

Happy St.Patty's Day.

Instead of drinking 'green beer' this year I was treated to some ALPINE drinking, with some friends. Yum. Rare treat out here, you can only buy it at this one pub, and that is ONLY if they have it in stock. We went to a maritime bar/pub called Atlantic Trap & Gill.

Fun times.

Mar 16th

The mall enterance was still dressed as an Igloo. LOL.

Talk about putting out the wrong impression. Actaully it was almost kinda campy-style because Vancouver was soooo warm during the Olympics/paralympics.

Mar 15th

Did some last minute pavilion hoping today...to get the one's I didn't see during the Olympics. A few pavilions were re-opend for the paralympics. Went to the BC one which was @ the Art museum.

It was cool. It looked like a rainforest sort of, with a canopy kind of thing. neat.

Also there was a plaque telling you a bit about the Spirit Bears in BC.

Mar 14th

Another busy day @ work.....didn't get a chance to get much of a pic.

This working all weekend is for the birds!

Speaking of birds....

I never know where these guys are going in such a hurry, but there are always in a huge flock, all trying to get to the same place!

Mar13th

Nice weekend, but alas had to work.

got a quick snapshot though while waiting for the bus to work.

This shot was taken in Kits.

Mar 12th

Today was nice, and I was out for a walk. Love that spring is here so early this year!

Last CB photo for awhile....
