PANCAKES!

... with real Maple and Saskatoonberry syrups!  Plus two fruit salads composed with complementary distributions of fruit! Nota bad way to start a morning.

Tag along

We went downtown to Padmanadi's for about the best-attended post-colloquium dinner I've ever been to. This guy came too.

An Embarrassment of Riches

By ridiculous coincidence, Tyler's visit coincided with Olivia's.  wee-haw.

Poster Boy

It's a little late for me to advertise this, but hey.

Bounty

Having a rental car for an extra day means shopping like it's the apocalypse.  The apocalypse where they run out of Aloe juice.

The Rat Race

I've had some nice commutes, but this is ridiculous.  Agata has to ski this green run home because BC workers' comp won't cover you if you take a blue or black run.  

xTreme Video

Agata did the camera work and narration for this, our first ever downhill skiing experience. 

The Interior

So we didn't take pictures on the mountain pass at night with 0 visibility, or in the hot-springs cave, but other than that this is pretty much what the BC interior is like.

Curlers => volume

Ever since that Cocktail Party, I've wanted to have a reverse-cocktail party. The only time I thought I could get people to do it was on my birthday.

I wish my personal friends were blogging about tilt-shift so I could link to them too

I knew I spent too much time reading what all the cool kids on the internet were saying when I saw this band of fog and thought "Reverse tilt-shift!"

Taste

We'll be sad to lose Trev an Sarah to Kingston.  I'm glad they've got this little piece of Alberta to keep butter in and remember us by.

Lofty Goals

Perfect hiring job, U of A.  Just the right man for the job.
