Cheerleaders
November 19, 2014. I got a longstanding piece of work completed, then spin, then to the Miracles game this evening. We lost in overtime, but it was good fun.from Flickr http://ift.tt/1HnRdNS

Leaves
November 17, 2014. The rains came and melted the snow, leaving flattened leaves behind. Work day, nothing special. Spin class in the evening (new personal best time holding the plank).from Flickr http://ift.tt/1zBeZRx -
Winterfall
November 18, 2014. The bad thing about this time of year is how early the darkness fall. Today it came with a blast of cold air. Pretty quiet day at the office today, mostly puttering, thinking about nbext year's budget, and starting my website migrat... -
Cleaning
November 16, 2014. I spent the day cleaning - just like Lexi here! - and getting caught up on some work. At the last moment of the day (literally) I remembered to capture a photo for the day, this with my S3 phone (the camera is the weakest part of th... -
Magic Hands
November 15, 2014. Leatherworker Ashley Brown of Hammerthreads demonstrates her craft on a mostly unwatched stage at the Magic Hands craft show at the Casino this afternoon - I rerally like the masks she has been making this year. After the show we go... -
First Snow
November 14, 2014. First snow of the year. Sigh. Summer is over. Fall is over. And I have no extended visits to tropical regions planned.from Flickr http://ift.tt/1zq7ZqG -
Changing Tires
November 13, 2013. No bikes left at spin class today so I had to go to Costco instead. Woe is me. Nice night shot of the tire-change area though.from Flickr http://ift.tt/1pWV5jD -
Look What They’ve Done To My Mag Ma
November 12, 2014. I won this last summer during the Highland Games. MAGMA stands for the Multicultural Association of the Greater Moncton Area and they gave me this and other prizes for naming each of something like a hundred flags they had on displa... -
Lexi
November 11, 2014. Another stay-at-home day nursing a post-travel cold. Hence the cat picture (where would photo-a-day be without them). This is Lexi, who lives her life in a perpetual state of wonder.from Flickr http://ift.tt/1pQquUT -
Tires
November 10, 2014. The day started and ended at the Honda dealership today as I got the car serviced, put on winter tires, and got it cleaned. In between it was bach-to-back-to-back meetings. But we're getting stuff done, so it's good.from Flickr http... -
Browned Eyed Susan
November 9, 2014. A fall day, a day mostly indoors, a day to take a quick trip to the store and watch a movie in the evening (Interstellar, which turned out to be so-so).from Flickr http://ift.tt/142q1Fe -
Bart
November 8, 2014. Today was an indoor day to rest and relax after a long busy period. The cats love it when I'm home all day. One after another took his or her place in front of my keyboard. This is Bart on the living room carpet watching me closely a... -
Nose Job
November 7, 2014. Back to the basketball game today. There are two things to note about this picture. First is the foul number 12 of Halifax, in the blue, has just committed, pulling Trayvon Lathan's arm down and in. We would score two on the foul sho... -
Saying Goodbye at the Airport
November 6, 2014. The wonderful team at Kasa in Armenia came out to give us a sendoff early in the morning at the airport. These were truly wonderful people to work with and I hope to be able to see them all again, as I became quite fond of them while... -

Sevan
November 5, 2014. I did a workshop this morning, had another media interview at noon, and then we took a short drive up into the mountains to see Lake Sevan (and the city of Sevan). It was cold and snowy and we didn't stay outside long. We had a nice ... -
Ararat
November 4, 2014. This is the Khor Virap monastery as seen etched against Mount Ararat in the background. After my return from Tbilisi I was too tired to go far, but this was about an hour from the city and made a nice afternoon trip. Truth be told, h... -
Tbilisi
Novemnber 3, 2014. I haad three minutes to decide, but it didn't take that long, so after my second talk I was whisked to the train station for a mad dash to Tbilisi, Georgia. It was overning, 10 1/2 hours each way, which gave me 12 hours to wander al... -
Tumo
November 2, 2014. From the lobby of the Tiumo Center, in Yerevan, where I gave my keynote this morning and a workshop in the afternoon. A non-stop day, as you can imagine.from Flickr http://ift.tt/1GlHd7m -
Geghard
November 1, 2014. Third day in Armenia. Today I went up a vaalley to the ancient monastery of Geghard, founded in the 4th century by Gregory the Illumator around a spring in a cave - I drank some water from that very spring. I also visted the restored... -
Graveyard
October 31, 2014. Happy Halloween from Armenia. This is the largest graveyard in Yerevan - I visited it after lunch on a longish walk in the southern part of the city. Grey day today, lots of cloud and smog.from Flickr http://ift.tt/10aTRVy -
Armenia
October 30, 2014. It's a seven hour time difference here in Yerevan so it's not surprising I woke up after noon. I still managed to take a good long walk (11 km) around the city. This is a statue of Alexander Tamanian, the master planner of the city, ... -
Airbus A-380
October 29, 2014. It's hard to imagine how this thing flies. I viewed it as you can see through the window at Charles De Gaulle airport in Paris. No, I did not fly it. I flew on what appeared to be a very old A-319 (which for some reason they had to s... -
2,000 Kilometers
October 28, 2014. Traveling today. I had a 12 hour layover in Toronto, which is crazy. But what I did is I went down to Gears, a bike shop in Port Credit, rented a nice road bike, and set out down Lakeshore Road for Burlington. It was 77 kilometers th... -
Polly
October 27, 2014. Very busy day, meetings plus running around getting ready to travel. Plus a spin class. Last thing before bed: this photo of Polly in the kitchen, waiting for her evening treat.from Flickr http://ift.tt/1zG7X1E -
Target
October 26, 2014. Andrea contemplates becoming a witch while I spot the flu shot sign to the left. We were there to get me travel food for my upcoming flight - we also got a new travel adapter and a pair of flu shots. I get them every year and haven't... -
Rain and Mist
October 25, 2014. Went out for a couple hours in the rain and added another 30 kilometers to my cycling distance, brining me that much closer to my annual goal. This is up Mclaughlin Road, at the 10km mark from home. This evening, went to the Miracles... -
Maple Leaf
October 24, 2014. The maple leaf is ubiquitous around these parts, and this time of the year the ground is coaovered with them. This is just one in a billion in the area. It landed on the sidewalk outside the office; I liked the symmetry and the colou... -
On Guard
October 22, 2014. It's interesting that as we were in this building discussing safety and security with the Vice President of NRC, the shooting events were unfolding at government facilities in Ottawa. So we've all been a bit more security conscious t...
