We had some more time to explore San Francisco this afternoon and our post diner breakfast walk turned into a 6-hour trek across town and back with John, Dale, and Duane. Related posts: WordCamp Day Blog, San Francisco Photowalk. View my entire set on Flickr and John’s got some great pics as well.

This afternoon John and I met up with John Biehler (who is also in town for tomorrow’s WordCamp) and we took a stroll.

A few weeks ago I wrote about it being Adoption Challenge month at the BC SPCA and I was able to stop by today with Keira and John to check out the Vancouver shelter‘s open house. I’m not sure these photos need captions, they pretty much speak for themselves. These are just a few of […]

Last night I grabbed Keira-Anne and headed to the Red Cross Red Carpet Soiree.

On Friday, Tourism Vancouver (@MyVancouver on Twitter) arranged a scenic flight for a select group of bloggers which saw us soar high above the region in a WestCoast Air float plane. Sean has a fine recap up already so I’ll simply post my photos and note that this was a really lovely experience, shared with […]

I’m becoming better with taking weekends off but being ‘connected’ is a part of who John and I are as a family, really. As such, we went for a walk yesterday down to the new convention centre (since John hasn’t seen the site in month) which turned into a photowalk. I decided to take a […]

We stopped off at the Coombs Market this morning before we said goodbye to Vancouver Island. Coombs is just 37 kms north of Nanaimo and the market is a great place to stop during an Island day trip, weekend, or getaway. For those who have heard of, or been to, Coombs you’ll probably associate it […]

While John was called away to the Okanagan this weekend, I had to stay behind and finish up some work for our company. Luckily, by the time 4:00pm rolled around I was able to pack up for the weekend and join a certain Island girl for a ferry ride back to her hometown. Today we […]

This evening the Tech Valley Social Club held it’s first tweetup at the Dublin Crossing Pub in Surrey. The Meet n Tweet saw about 60 people gather to talk about social media, technology, Twitter, and business practices. It was fantastic to be a part of it all and to have a chance to speak for […]
