Blenz is a known entity, unlike my previous entry. They’re a Vancouver based company with locations all over the Fraser Valley. They were my go-to for a hot drink on the return from a photoshoot or trip somewhere by myself when I’d had Starbucks on the way and didn’t want my wife to see I […]

I didn’t know about Amazi Coffee until I notice them while going to a physio appointment. I wanted my Chai Latte for when I was back home at work, and going to a coffee shop right beside instead of going out of my way to go to a Starbucks, so I ran in. Inside wasn’t

Few things make me feel as sad and frustrated as driving through Squamish. The Chief there in it’s glory, and if you look at the right place at the right time seeing it dotted with tiny climbers. Remembering what it was like to come up here every single weekend. Young, bronzed, able to take on

With my new computer, a Mac Studio, comes with a 10G ethernet port instead of the standard 1G (1000MB/s). Since a lot of the work that I do is dealing with tons of photography image files off the NAS, I thought it’d be fun to see if I could get the NAS to also get

The last post here was 8 months ago. Before that it was 2 years. Back in the day I used to love writing a blog. Back then it was me writing for a specific group of people (probably in reality it was much smaller than I imagined). Sharing geeky stuff, writing up complex thoughts that
I’m going to condense the second two days of the safari trip on the Masai Mara into one post. The non-safari parts weren’t super memorable or important. The food was “meh” the accommodations were “adequate,” and the safari was “amazing”. So yea, here’s a quick story from those two days.

So this is a bit of a story about the first day that we were on in the Masai Mara in Kenya, from pickup to the drive to (most importantly), the animals and photography. It is going to be more of a photos only post, but I’ll try to add a bit of context in

Today was a relaxing / resetting day. I woke up at 3am and was perfectly awake. My body currently has no idea what day, time, or week it is. I’m hoping to take my boss’s philosophy of simply telling your body that it’s whatever time it is where you are, but I’m not sure. I
