Vedder Bridge launch

After many years of traffic gridlock, the Vedder Bridge was replaced this year. The new roundabout and wider lanes make for smoother traffic flow. Here is video of the “launch” earlier this year of the new bridge across the Chilliwack River.

Handfeeding our lovebird on the patio

Warm and sunny in Vancouver today, so what better time to have our lovebird enjoy some freedom out on the deck. Just love our lovebird. He is so friendly and just stays with you no matter where you go.

In this video he’s eating seeds right from the hand.

Central Park walkabout

After a quiet walk through the park here are some photos to share. Walking through Central Park in Burnaby reminded me of the days we took our young children out for some exercise and fresh air.

Trip from Surrey to Metrotown

I took an evening drive from the ‘burb back to where we once lived. It was a bit of nostalgia as we traveled back to where we lived when it was just the two if us.

Seeing the tremendous growth around Metrotown I am excited for the future of Surrey’s new city centre. The new Surrey Library is a great anchor to our city. The vision of the Surrey Central development is finally coming to realization.
