    Flowers

    by
    April 8, 2018. We drove into the Costco, where I saw these flowers, then back, after which I settled in to bed to listen to the ball game and try to recover a bit. I was doing better that the previous few days but lacking sleep. https://flic.kr/p/GiUqyF

    Rocks

    by
    March 29, 2018. This is a section of road just past the Alexandra Bridge seen as I drove home from Gatineau. I spent the morning preparing for a workshop and the afternoon doing the workshop, and the evening watching the Blue Jays season opener (about ...

    by
    March 23, 2018. Friday odds and ends at work - my performance review, doing timesheets, completing an online course (page-turner on security), planning for a project, answering email, and getting ready for some time mostly away from the office. These a...

    Croquantes

    by

    Greenbelt

    by
    February 26, 2018. The highway was backed up so I found myself on Innes Road on the way in to the office. This is the view from Innes Road, which was also backed up (but not as badly as the highway). The Greenbelt isn't exactly green yet, but there are...

    Cattle Castle

    by
    December 28, 2017. Today this building is known as the Aberdeen Pavilion, but for my entire time at Lansdowne Park it was known as the Cattle Castle, and that's how I think of it. This is the view from the movie theatre where we went to see Star Wars. ...

    Pall

    by
    December 18, 2017. This is the office as I left this evening (I work in the building on the left). Today I spent the day finishing my analysis of CSPS documentation, looking for entities and properties being used to describe their work and its outcomes...
