Waiting..


I am back in Vancouver listening to the Canuck's play the Red Wings in Detroit (it's a pay-per-view game; whence me listening and not watching).
I took down my show on Sunday and am waiting in Vancouver until the trailer is moved so I can start building the house! I'm told they are very close to getting it moved. Then it's time for excavation. Then I can start with the footings. Luckily, I've had a few days work installing laminate flooring here in the big city, until I get the OK to go back to Campbell River.

November Rain

So here I am sitting in my parents basement after a day of working for the man, well, my dad, actually. We were just hit with a pretty intense storm with lots and lots of rain, so it's just as well I didn't have to be out in it much today. He has me building some oak cabinets in his shop for City Hall.
I had initilly intended on getting started on the house this week and made the trip to the island to do just that. However, the trailer has yet to be removed from the property and the permits are not yet been finalized. This after being duped into buying a round trip ticket on the ferries thinking I was getting a good deal, but instead I spent an extra $100 and I will have to take three ferries to get back to the mainland. So here I sit.
I will be going back to Vancouver this weekend to take down my show. It's been up since October 27th when we had the opening. That was a lot of fun and I got to see a lot of people I hadn't seen in a long time (including but not limited to: Karen, Jennifer, and Elisa!). It was really cool to see all my artwork in the huge gallery that the InterUrban is. It'll be kind of sad taking it all down. I'm glad my friends got to see it. And my sister, Alana came over last weekend with her man, Micca. We also went and saw the Body Worlds exhibit and were really impressed.

My first blog

My first blog. Where to begin?
Right here right now.
Wednesday evening waiting for the fish to fry.
I am preparing for my trip to the island to build a house for my brother. I'll be gone for a couple of months so I need to get things finalized here in the big smoke (Vancouver) .
Lots to do.
Let's eat...
