I had to laugh for all the struggles our company has gone through.

We always like to stop in Steveston on our way into Vancouver

Room with a view - 25th floor of the Hyatt Regency Vancouver.  Balcony room.  Get this.....$85 from Priceline.com!!

The venerable Hotel Vancouver

Our friends Paul and Anne were leaving from Vancouver to fly to NYC, then Thailand via London.  We went over and spent a great evening with them and had an amazing dinner at Don Francesco Restaurant on Burrard Street across from the Sutton Place Hotel.  Want great food and have a large wallet?  Go there!

Great to get together with our Aussie friends.

Oldtimershockey v Greater Victoria Firefighters

The game was a fundraiser for the Mustard Seed and a cheque for $5K was presented by the Greater Victoria Fire Fighters.  Oh, and the Oldtimers won handily.

Oldtimershockey at SOFMC pregame intros

Clayton with his friend Trent and I went to the NHL Oldtimers game at Save On Foods Memorial Centre.  It was a highly entertaining affair and those old dudes can still play hockey!  The ref was Ron Hoggarth who officiated over 1000 NHL games.  Tell you one thing, Rod Black from TSN who played and was a part time MC for the evening is hilarious.  And not a bad hockey player either.

That is a BIG tug boat in dry dock.

The police lights were flashing.... we could not determine why

The Homecoming statute to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the Canadian Navy

Hope you can read the marker. 

Our usual Saturday morning walk to downtown for coffee and sights.

Shower fix

We had a bit of a leakage problem through some of the grout around the tiles.  After stripping and exposing the wall, we now start the process of reconstruction.  

Spring is just around the corner....

Thanks for sending this funny Murr. (we don't know how you do it!)
