morleymooseisontheloose: The Good Doctor, episodes 311 & 312

Waiting for a cast member in the Mount Pleasant area of Vancouver on an early, rainy, Monday morning.

We have already passed the 1/2 way point of filming season 3 of the Good doctor. This week we finished episode 311 and started on 312.

Tuesday, same pic, less rain.

Yay! Ritsue's arrival has meant some yummy treats, like this udon dish.

I try to keep informed with what is going on with our transport union, the mighty Teamsters 155. This past Sunday I attended the monthly meeting at the union hall.

Ha, close to Metrotown mall, the old style phones are becoming scarcer and scarcer.

……..I had to go out to Port Coquitlam to get my tires replaced on my cast ride. When I went for a coffee, I saw this machine that sells Bitcoins. I saw this behemoth back in season 1, I didn't know it was still a thing...….

…….an extended coffee and cookie break as I waited for the tire swap.

Back at our base camp at the Bridge Studios. I was incredulous to what I saw. Someone dropped a garbage bin right by the cast trailers...…...

…..well, if this propane truck cannot get by, I am not even going to try. I'll just go the other way behind stage 4......

…..and someone else decided to park and block all traffic. Good thing there wasn't a fire close by. Kind of frustrating.

Back at the tire shop, fellow cast driver peep Jim got these beauty brand new mud and snow tires...….

…...while I received these disappointing, used treads, meh! (Not much I could do, this was pre-arranged by the owner of the vehicle.)

Back in Mount Pleasant, one of the many building murals in the area.

We had mostly early starts this week, a welcome change from the norm. This morning I was in Kitsilano waiting for cast, a cool view of Vancouver.

Trying to keep track of which cast we need to take home, part of my every day duties.

Mid-week, waiting at the Sutton hotel...…….

…….with over 40 productions filming in town right now, I was shocked to see I was the only one waiting for cast, when normally you can't even get a parking spot with all the cast vehicles that are usually there.

Thursday morning, my pic was in Yaletown.

…..back at the studio offices, starting to get into the Halloween mood.

A cold stark view of Burrard Inlet from Kitsilano on this morning.

Friday morning I was back in Yaletown, it was a cool rainy gray view of False Creek.

Random, sunroof look-up to the skies, rainy pic.

Friday afternoon, there was a climate march downtown, led by Greta Thunberg. We were worried about the road closures due to the crowds, so we decided to stage in various points close to the downtown core and wait it out. (We had many pick-ups in the area around the same time as the march.) I waited underneath the convention centre.

We filmed both episodes at the Bridge on Friday. The problem was one started at 10 a.m. and the other didn't start until 2:30 p.m. That can only mean another...…….
