beautiful british columbia
on a bit of a whim, i took a trip to vancouver, b.c.
lefty and jenn scheduled the weekend around the death cab/franz ferdinand show. of course, the show didn't quite work out but a good time was had by all. not at the same time, mind you.
........................................................................................................................
we're all control freaks.
fortunately the degrees and focus vary. anh planned the trip, i drove and jenn made certain we always had a topic to discuss. oh, and she took most of the snapshots, too.
........................................................................................................................
listening intently to the conversation or brooding?
jenn, now you know: lefty and i are not listening. ever. we don't listen. got it?
........................................................................................................................
our asian mafia: lefty.
........................................................................................................................
yes, we took snapshots of each other taking snapshots.
........................................................................................................................
even tigger had his leathers on.
........................................................................................................................
stick shifts, safety belts and ethel who graced us with good tunes.
........................................................................................................................
filling time, no nexus pass.
the state of healthcare in the u.s., circa 2006: prescriptions filled in cananda.
thankfully, i was not beaten to a pulp by the driver of the truck.
........................................................................................................................
finally, vancouver.
the most expensive call i've ever picked up.
lefty, can you give a girl some room?
........................................................................................................................
chambar.
lamb, asparagus, frites, mussels, a very good house beer. good choice, lefty.
........................................................................................................................
random snapshot taken during the walk back to the hotel for a nap after chambar.
lefty jumps on my back to wake me up. there must be a better way, right?
........................................................................................................................
lick.
good dj, fun dancing and bad drinks.
lefty wins a gold star for playing along. jenn wins a gold star for flirting with purpose.
........................................................................................................................
the day after.
shopping. wish i had a snapshot of lefty in her new dress.
here's where samantha takes her camera back.
appropo of my hangover: as i certainly felt like i had been backhanded by god on saturday morning.
here's where jenn takes the camera again.
again, another excellent pick by lefty. the food was great. hope to go back when they aren't catering a wedding next door, though. 'bob the bartender' was fun. jenn: hope that hand towel works out for you.
our barkeep, 'bob'.
........................................................................................................................
rain. leaving.
