The Good Doctor episode 309

Spur of the moment is good...……(I'll explain later)

The week-end prior I had a chance to take junior out for a belated birthday dinner. We went to Gotham Steakhouse. The gave us a tablet to peruse the drink menu.

The prices were, well...…...

The main entrees were, well...…….

We settled on a winery I am very familiar with, LaFrenz, on the Naramata bench close to my home town of Penticton.

That's a lot of meat, right there, driver.

It was still an enjoyable outing. 

As we strolled towards the skytrain station to head home we decided to go over to Rogers arena and see if, by chance, ……..

…..we could score some last minute tickets to the concert...….

…..there was one scalper left outside, he had two tickets which he said were behind the stage, but they turned out to be a pretty dandy view of Elton John.

(and that was what the first picture was all about)

Even though we were an hour late getting in, we still got to hear 1 1/2 hours of all his classics

He came out for 3 encore songs! 

Back to reality, actually, back to make believe land. An early morning cast pick-up close to Kingsway and Broadway. The first episode of season 3 of the Good Doctor has already aired, while we are filming the 9th episode.

Ha! Down at the Sutton Hotel, ran into fellow cast driving peep, Jim, who is helping out on a new show called Firefly Lane. Hope to see him back on the Good Doctor soon.

Haha, it almost looks like a police line-up. Actually, it's just some fellow Teamsters, Aaron, Jaz, Mike, Eugene, Rocky, and Greg awaiting the Teamster lunch. (1/2 hour before everyone else, a tradition I do not know the history of.)

Lighting up the neighbourhood at Vancouver Community College, which  fronts as the hospital cafeteria.

We are truly blessed by our caterers. Today, they bought a brand new industrial juicer. Fresh fruit and vegetable juice every morning if you like.

Round and round, back downtown, this time my route of choice was Venables, and a straight shot to the downtown core.

Sitting on the main street of the Bridge Studios on Friday, I have a feeling this may turn into...….

……..and it did, a Fraturday.

Meanwhile, back in Hiroshima, the feast has been prepared.....

.....and a gorgeous sunrise at Ritsue and her mother's house.

.....for the guests of honor, none other than my bro Skip, and his girlfriend Doris. Ritsue and her mother shared their world for 4 nights.

One of the many places Ritsue took them was the Kintai bridge, which she also took me to back in 2017
