Since you were asking.

Spent a couple of days up the coast near Sechelt, a tiny beachfront town on the Strait Of Georgia. I would totally include a link to a map, but I don't know how to do that at present! Anyway, in the last 3 weeks it's been nonstop rain, almost all day, every day. Well on Friday there was a miraculous all-day break in the clouds and the sun came out, people were out walking around...I spent more time outside on Friday than I had the entire previous three weeks. Anyway, we were up the coast, so we had a really nice hike, and later in the day built a fire in the fire pit which is on the edge of the beach at my friend's cabin. I snapped a few totally cool shots of the flying embers (like this one) and have posted a few other shots from recent weeks over on Flickr. Go have a look! Leave comments!

"Everybody in the family played Scrabble and took great pride in hoarding Ks and Qs and slapping them down in long, fancy words on triple-letter scores."

There's only one K and one Q in the Scrabble box.

He's gotten really good at that harp business! I'm not sure I like where it's taking him though.

I've just acquired a copy of The Waite Group's "New C Primer Plus".


Am I well on my way to realizing my dream of becoming a computer programmer?

LJ - virtual gifts? OK, I sorta get it, but this one?



Looks like an aborted fetus!

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Send one now to your favorite right wing conservative!
