Yesterday was my third wedding anniversary and what better way to celebrate than to take the wife to a patio in one of the trendier restaurants in Yaletown.  Goldfish Pacific Kitchen got the call and away we were.  First impressions:  This place is huge.  Space in Yaletown is not cheap and this restaurant/lounge takes up […]

Looking for something fun and free this weekend?  I know I am.  And that’s why I’ll be heading out to Deer Lake Park in Burnaby this Sunday for a free concert performed by the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.  The al fresco (that means outdoors) show starts at 7:30pm and is a great way to wrap up […]

With ever greater frequency developers are not providing parking spaces to the lower end suites in new buildings. Take 1212 Howe, as the latest example. The Jr. One bed suites had no chance of getting a parking space. Or look at getting even some higher end buildings, ones where you are paying […]

Did I say October 3rd?  Well, I didn’t tell you the year.  Whatever you do, do not go buy tickets on October 3rd, 2008.  Go in 2009.  Please.  If you go this year, and I go this year, then the chances of me getting tickets are slim to none.  The events I want to go […]

Where did all the posting go?  I used to post near every day yet lately it’s down to maybe one per week.  Why is that?

In the past major concerts have bypassed Vancouver with Seattle being the closest city that many had to travel to to […]

I’ve never been one to much care for honorary degrees as they seem more often a showpiece/press event for the university than for the person they are bestowing the degree on. Not the case with Bing Thom, though. Here is a man, a giant of the architectural world, who has had a big […]

I’m one who rather likes my gorgeous skylines broken up with works of art. Forget about the fact that I often have no idea what they’re trying to say. Isn’t that reason enough to keep them? The promotion of thought like a shock to your system as your routine is broken up […]

Sometimes you need to step away to appreciate the beauty that surrounds you. That’s what this image does. Flickr (a local Vancouver start-up made good and now owned by Yahoo) user Ectaticist took this fantastic shot, title Pacific Jewel, and it was chosen as one of the most interesting shots by all Flickr […]

It can be pretty hard as a realtor to balance work, family, and personal pursuits. Think about it. As a client you likely work Monday to Friday, 9-5 (plus all those undocumented overtime hours). When you need your realtor to be active is likely after 5pm weekdays and on the weekends. […]
