6 days......

As an appetizer, I thought a prawn skewer was in vogue. (just not used to it being served, uhhh, whole.) Kudos to B&D Authentic Viet Cuisine in my hood in Burnaby.

 

Retirement? Bingo? No, I'm not ready!! Actually it was a fun night with junior at the Lougheed Village Bar & Grill in Burnaby. 

Well, it may be back to work soon after this booster fan was installed to help get the dryer air to the outside. Yikes, trades are expensive these days. 

We went to honor the veterans on Remembrance Day at city hall in New Westminster. A toast of course was mandatory after the ceremony, so we headed to the New Westminster Legion to do exactly that.

A toast and a chance to win at the meat draw. (Dang, I love the meat draw, a raffle to win meat, come on!) Unfortunately we will be buying our meat on this day. Still was a good outing.

What! Are you kidding yourself? Yup, back on the ice after a near 17 year hiatus.

The, after the booster fan was installed, we noticed the grate on the balcony needs replacing, but not until January, according to the strata corporation, pic.

So it was time, after wearing skates I got from one of junior's team mates back when he played minor hockey, to get a new pair. Not looking forward to the sore feet, lol.

Spent a Wednesday hanging out with the Calgary Stampeders football fans (and horses) at the Billy Bishop Legion in Kitsilano. It was one of the Grey Cup week festivities in Vancouver.

Well, a sausage syrup pancake sandwich. When in Rome......

I was there to visit diehard CFL football and 2010 Olympic Torch Relay teammate Jenn and her mother who flew in from Hamilton, Ontario.

Out on a walk, nice to find this time of year.

Ha! After skating a couple of times I went out for "stick and puck." I think my new nickname could be "rusty."

Hyuk, time to cut down on the calories, so I'm only having one sausage for my breakfast.

My last gig of the 2024 filming season. It was what they call additional photography for a show called Blue Moon. It is an 8-part limited series about the Amanda Knox story. Knox is one of the producers. This Brentwood neighbourhood is supposed to be Seattle. The fog for the first 3 days made filming a little tricky.

Well, I knew they were coming, but please, not in my neighbourhood!, I'm not ready!

The fog finally cleared and we got back to work taking over another neighbourhood.

........anddddddd action!

During this week I drove one director for the first 3 days and another for the last three days. This early morning I waited for Mike outside of Analog Coffee in Yaletown. 

There's that fog again.

A picture says a thousand words, lol. On this  day I had to take the head of health and safety for Disney down to Ironwood studios on Marine Drive in Vancouver. I had time to visit my transport co-ordinator Andrew, who is working on a pilot, called "Phony."

My choice for coffee early in the a.m. that week was Cafe Artigiano at the Yaletown Roundhouse.

One of the locations was Barnett Marine Park in Burnaby, a jogging scene. We'll see about that.......

Most of the action was in my rear-view mirror. Hard to tell that Burrard Inlet is just steps away.

Okay, back to thinking about retirement, lol.

Hanging out outside of set waiting for my director, why not?

The hatch open, back-up camera, waiting for the director at the Level on Seymour, pic.

Sitting and waiting on wrap of  this 6 day shoot. What's next, I don't know, Christmas? Maybe retire.......(What's that sound? Oh ya, the sound of a broken record.)
