During the summer Vancouver hosts a fireworks competition in English Bay. About 300,000 people crowd the streets to watch four countries put on some incredible shows.

    Me (Right), Earl (Left), and Allen (Middle) at a company outing when I was at Future Shop. About 20 people took a hiking trip to Lighthouse Park in West Vancouver.
Earl scouts, Allen bird watches, and I recite King Lear.

    At the end of the hike.

    Heather and I about to leave on a whale watching tour. After spending 45 minutes in a tiny zodiac we finally found a pod of Orcas. Before heading back we decided to try to get in front of the pod one more time. Well we did a great job because the whales breached about 30 feet in front of us and then passed right under our bout. One of the females (No, i don't actually know it was a female.) rolled while passing in under so she could get a good look at us.

    Relaxing after a hard day.
