Yes, we certainly need them.  Summers see the hotels booked solid and with the olympics coming there is no doubt in my mind that we have no space for the coming throngs.  Heck, we don’t even know where we’re to put the journalists (on a cruise ship in Squamish?).
Well, soon enough I will be building […]

I’m a punctual person.  If I’m not 5 minutes early I tend to be over 30 minutes early to any appointment.  This time can be spent very productively in quiet thought, prepping a home for a showing, or getting a coffee.  Usually getting a coffee.
For the past few days I’ve been spending a lot of […]

While the real estate market slows down and people enjoy the summer you can still find people lined up at one of the busiest corners in the city.  They’re not there to buy a condo, or to see a celebrity (though famous faces have been known to be there, not sure if they wait in […]

Haven’t posted much this past week because I’ve just been so busy and haven’t had much to say.  That’s not to say that I didn’t have any fun.  Oh no.  Got to see all four nights of fireworks this year.  Canada, USA, China, and tonight’s finale.  This after my little girl’s second birthday party so […]

I tried to post from my phone on Wednesday but something clearly went amiss in the intertubes and it never got put up.  In any case, my post was a status update from the cheap seats of Vanier Park, my new and favourite place to watch the summer spectacular that is the HSBC Celebration of […]

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?
Time, or lack there of, I should say.
After suffering through a rather average winter, average only in the amount of rain and grey days, the sun has come out and it […]
