The ragtag workers who dressed up for halloween. This evening I hope to make it to Beau and Jana’s annual Haunted House to have a squizz!

Edit:
Beau and Jana’s haunted house was pretty impressive again this year. I came late so I missed some of the most impressive new improvements because the actors/deadbodies were inside warming up. On the plus side, I got to catch up with Shannon, Tanner’s sister, who has graduated form Coast Guard school or whatever and is now living temporarily in Edmonton and Vancouver…

Woke up this morning Saturday morning to a gorgeous view of a blanket of white snow covering the dry pond in the backyard. The temperature was still close to zero so walking around outside was very appealing to me. I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t seen snow in 2 years but there’s something about the first snowfall of the year that is very welcome to me, especially this one. If only Canadian winters would be this warm all through till spring, I think it would be a favourite season of mine.

Haven’t been to the Old Strathcona Farmer’s Market in a long while but I always enjoy myself when I go Saw lots of vendors dressed up for Halloween. It was fun, reminded me a bit of the markets in Australia but smaller. We need more fresh produce markets here!
That is one major thing I miss about grocery shopping in Melbourne/Adelaide.

Adam and I also went with Team Chiang to Montana’s to celebrate Dustin’s bday. We weren’t the only ones celebrating a birthday so Dustin knew that the coming embarrassment entailed a giant helmet with horns, singing staff, and free dessert.

Char and I have got Monday nights down for swimming and, because of Adam's hunting trip, I didn't get to see him since Thursday. On Sunday he decided to join us for laps at the pool. Sure, why not. Boasting ... [Continue reading this entry]

YAY! I was being quite slack on buying tickets to the Cat Empire show until the day of and unfortunately, the show was sold out! SUCKS! That's what I get for being lazy. So I spent Friday night at home, chilling ... [Continue reading this entry]

So LeAnna and Peter G (Pete) have been working out alright in the proofing department thereby freeing me up to work in other areas. The drawback is that I don't really have a desk anymore, at least not until they ... [Continue reading this entry]

Adam took me out to a nearby motorcross track yesterday and although it was raining and muddy, it looks like a hell of a lot of fun! We were there only a little while ... [Continue reading this entry]

The show started off with Nitza as the opening act. The music was beautiful but her voice sounded a bit flat (probably needed more warmup). Part way through her set, the mic cut out and she improvised by dancing until ... [Continue reading this entry]

Last weekend, Brent and I went for lunch at Fiore's. We had lots of appetizers and had a good time catching up.
