Olympic City

I had to provide some photos of what is going on around Vancouver during the winter olympics. There are cameras everywhere you look.

My older brother took up photography a few years ago and has taken many shots that I wish I could say I had taken. This is one of the recent examples. He still lives in Winnipeg.

Bedroom & Billie Holiday

We live in a house that was built in the 1940's. It's simple and small and, maybe, influences my needs in that direction. The insulation is not great but I love it when the light is coming up in the windows and Billie Holliday is playing on the stereo. I think this is one of the finest musical moments ever recorded.

Iona Fog

The mild weather has been good for gardeners but I miss the fog that we usually get at least once a winter.

English Bay

Yacht Club

I was born and grew up in Winnipeg. Perhaps that is why I can be surprised, even after living in Vancouver for thirty years, at the beauty in a seaport city.

And January slips away.
