I just got back from 6 days of camping on the west coast of the U.S. My trip began in Seattle, and traced the Pacific coast from Northwest Washington down through Central Oregon. I was blessed with generally dry days and loads of rain at night, but thanks to my trusty new tent I managed to stay dry. The scenery was excellent, lots of isolated beaches filled with driftwood (or drift-trees as it were) and I came back with a few photos I’m quite happy with. Below is the first of several sets, these were taken at Rialto Beach, Olympic National Park, Washington. Full set of photos are here.

This past weekend we gathered for the annual boat lift into Graham’s lake in Haliburton. It’s become a steady tradition and after a couple hours of routine labour we enjoyed the sun, the water, and a few relaxing matches of battle tubing. Almir showed up armed with a mouth guard and didn’t disappoint with his James Bond-style jumps, but in the end we decided to call of the matches early for fear of injury. Thanks for hosting Graham, it was a blast as always!
A few photos are below, with the full gallery here.

As Roy returned from overseas and reclaimed his room, Nuala passed the proverbial baton and headed out into the wilderness of Thornhill to begin another step in her journey. A few of us got together to celebrate the occasion, and in between aggressive height comparisons, modeling lessons and a few attempts to get Chris to dance we had some great laughs. We will miss you Nuala! Full set of photos arehere.

This past weekend we all got together for a little birthday celebration for Karen. College Street was the usual haunt, as martinis and Coronas mixed with some adept dancing in Little Italy. While it’s hard to believe another year has gone by since the King Street extravaganza a year ago, it’s nice to see everyone still has their moves!

Last weekend we headed south for the annual trek to Chateau D’Souza and the slopes of Elicottville, NY. The weather co-operated and we had 2 fantastic sunny days of skiing and good times on the slopes. Dan thanks for hosting, and a special thanks to Cellino & Barnes for keeping us all entertained with their billboards.

I was down in Boston interviewing for business school and we decided to stay a few days and check out the city. It’d been 4 years since I’d been there for training, and needless to say I didn’t have time to check the city out. It’s geographically compact, but full of wonderful old buildings and neighbourhoods. The HBS campus is beautiful, and I’m definitely excited about the possibility of living there for two years.

On a blistering cold Sunday a few weeks back I headed to the local park with Graham and Maude for a few quick shots. I’m still learning the ropes with my 85L, but was pretty happy with how a few of these turned out.

Let the games begin! Saturday night was the Marc | Andria | Nuala January triple birthday bonanza–otherwise known as MAN Jananza. With limited warning and generally poor organization, we had great turnout both at our place for the pre-party, Stone’s Place for the main event and Rol San for the after party. Thanks to all who made it!

Was walking back from Marc’s this afternoon and decided to snap a few shots of the Manulife building across the road from my place. We got a few inches of snow overnight and everything had stuck to the trees beautifully. All images converted using the split-toning process in Lightroom. Now if only the cars wouldn’t keep driving by…

Hard to believe it but 2007 has come and gone. As I look back on the year, it was one of the best that I can remember and hopefully 2008 will bring more of the same. Last night a group of us got together for New Year’s Eve celebrations–pretty much everyone who was in town made it (except you Nuala) and BD made the trek up from Buffalo as well. Marc and Chris hosted a pre-party with dinner and drinks at 57 Charles, then we headed out to Ultra Supper Club for a classy and excellent night on the town. The night finished peacefully around 3am without incident and the photos should indicate a solid time for all involved. Thanks everyone, I had a blast!
