Snowshoeing at Cypress, BC

Ice Skatin'

My First Trip to the Ice Rink in 20 years... Kitsilano, BC
Note: Jo and I are apparently much slower than Jamie at getting the skates on. And I especially like how Jo is looking to me for sock knowledge. And no, I didn't fall.

Anywhere, N. America

Tufted hair grass, N Vancouver, BC
The grasses outside my boss' place are taking the snow like champs!

rain chains

Frozen Rain Chains outside my boss' window, North Vancouver, BC
My office has a greenroof which absorbs and slows the rain, and then the remaining water spills down this tea-cup chain to a pot full of Irises on the ground. I've timed it, and it can take up to 2 hours after it begins to rain before water is flowing down the chains.

My Commute

To and From Work - Vancouver Across Lions Gate Bridge to North Vancouver, BC
