Today the weather completely improved over yesterday – we had fantastic blue skies the entire trip from Thunder Bay to Sault Ste. Marie. I felt for most of the trip like I was in a car commercial – shiny black car running along the mountain roads into the sunrise.
Northern Ontario is gorgeous, but a couple [...]

Hiding out in Thunder Bay
September 14th, 2008 · No Comments · Travel
We’re in Thunder Bay, safe and sound, despite a harrowing after-dark drive through a torrential downpour an hour outside of our destination… it was a pretty low point in my decision-making history and left us both a little frazzled, so we’re spending an extra day here just to get some proper sleep and recover.
We got [...]

Our Road Trip Begins
September 12th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Travel
Natasha and I are on our way! Our plans are already a little behind schedule because the movers had to come late, but once they showed up everything went really smoothly. It helped that we started packing 2 weeks ago – pretty much everything was boxed up and ready to go. (And we even had [...]

In a quirk of incredibly bad timing, my service provider accidentally blew up my blog, again, plunging you all into radio silence while huge important life-changing things happened to me. I could approach all of this stuff as individual posts later, but here’s at least the gist of what’s going on:

I think it’s pretty safe to say that I’ll be on my worst behavior this year at Siggraph in Texas… I’m so excited about being in a place where I can wear a dorky cowboy hat, a bandana over my mouth, and shout “DRAW!” every few minutes and actually fit in. Because I know that’s [...]

Some of the buildings in SanFran deserve a Ghostbuster demon at the top. This one in particular.
In case you haven’t guessed, yeah. I’m finally in the process of scanning in all the pictures I’ve been taking on my trips.

*grin* I’m just kidding of course. Ran into those famous old homes in San Francisco the other day while exploring, they’re called “postcard row” and they’re the houses featured in the TV show “Full House”.
I know you’re as excited as I am.

I ended up in a conversation about phallic landscapes with a friend of mine tonight, and ended up scanning in a picture from my trip to Arches National Park in Utah.
A little supicious maybe? Yeah.
Hey, I don’t make the landscapes, I just take them.

I was scanning a bunch of pictures of my trip to Boston (Which I’ll add on the left when I get a chance) when I came upon this one, which is probably my favourite picture of me, ever.
It’s a reflection of me in a subway window, deep beneath the city of Boston. This picture pretty [...]
