To celebrate my birthday, I decided to hike down to Bow Falls and the Bow River near The Banff Centre. The fluffy snow was falling, the weather wasn’t cold, and there was barely any wind. It made for a near perfect journey.
Here’s a short video filmed yesterday during the hike:
Snow. Plenty of it.
We didn’t receive as much as they have lately in some parts of the U.S.A. (April’s relatives in Colorado have been stuck inside for quite a while) or across the Canadian prairie provinces, but we’ve received enough to make one really start thinking twice about living here.
Of course, it makes the outdoors [...]

We spent our time decorating the house here in Edmonton (April decorated our place in Iowa before she traveled up here), visiting friends and family, [...]

My wife had to travel to Mt. Ayr, Iowa, to take care of some professional matters, so I joined her on the day trip with our friend Al. He wanted to show us a cool 50’s-themed restaurant, but we arrived to find it closed for the day. Hopefully we’ll get a chance to go inside [...]
Here’s some photos from a trip to Bettendorf, Iowa where I attended an Education Technology Conference with my wife on June 21 and June 22.
We stayed at The Lodge, a European-styled hotel with lots of fantastic wood carvings, furniture, artwork, and architecture. I didn’t have a lot of time to take photos, but I was [...]
We have a Mulberry tree in our backyard in Iowa, so we decided to pick some of the berries that were ready. As usual, one of the cats (Monique) decided to join us.

I’ve always wanted a Venus Fly Trap and we know a few friends who might like to have one, so we picked up a few today. April and I were supervised by the cats while we transplanted the Fly Traps into larger pots.

Hello all.
Between working on a film set and catching strep throat and a flu, helping out family and friends with work and projects, and trying to get other stuff finished, I haven’t posted much on my personal blog here in about a month. We’ve also got a huge dump of snow in the last few [...]
Yeah, I’m still here folks. Got some new posts coming soon, including interviews, beginning with author/illustrator and Xenozoic Tales/Cadillacs and Dinosaurs creator, Mark Schultz.
Stay friendly.
