eek...it's been a while.

i didn't quite realize how long though. i've just been working lots and haven't had much time. plus, i'll admit i got myself facebooking. i've taken a good half step back though. but it's still really interesting to see just how small the world can be sometimes.
i've been biking to work lots recently which feels really good. and besides, this week is bike to work week and on june 6th it's clean air day. that means no single occupancy vehicles! biking home is still a grind, but every days seems to get a little bit easier.
this past weekend, we were up in kelowna visiting good friends of mine. they've lived there for about a year now, and ever since they moved there, i'd promise i'd go and visit them. so a year later, that finally happened. it was a very relaxing weekend and it was really good to see them. we did a bit of hiking and walking, and learning all about kelowna and especially the wicked fire of 2003 that just went crazy. and of course, you can't really go to the okanagon without doing some wine tours. we did 3 in total. i did a bit of sampling, but they were all quite good and all very different too.
last night i had a reunion of sorts with some folks that i worked with about 5 years ago. we see each other every so often, but not nearly enough. we also got a chance to go and visit our old place of work which was very interesting to see. a whole lot of renovations have taken place and it looks quite different. in then end though, i think we all decided it was waay better when we were there. times change though.
in a couple of weeks it's off to the wonderful praries, so unless something super duper exciting happens between now and then, the next post will be later rather than sooner.
peace out
