I know blossoming trees are like, old news now, but I am trying to work backwards and post some photos I’ve taken through the late winter and early spring so when the real summer action starts ...
While watching the Supermoon rise over the Na Mokolua islands off Lanikai Beach recently, I was reminded of another weekend over which loomed the mystical spectre of this Perigee moon. That, of cours...

I’m pretty bummed that I can’t get Instagram for my phone yet. Makes me sad I can’t share my own photos or comment on the daily minutia of other people’s lives. I’m nosy...
Being in Victoria this weekend, with a view of flowering trees and morning sunshine outside the window, makes it hard to believe we were hiking through the snow a few weeks ago in Kamloops. Such a ni...
Crystal Visions II: Leather & Lace finally happened and it was everything I dreamed it would be. Our apartment was transformed into a sensual den of hanging crystals, doors of rose lace and fring...

Today is my birthday. I am twenty-nine years old. The last year of my twenties! I know age is “nothing but a number” but there’s always a whiff of symbolism to me about entering a n...
In February we usually get a nice streak of sunny weather (wonderful in that there’s sunshine, terrible in that you’re like “Spring is here! Summer is right around the corner!”...
Here’s something I did once and never did again! Let’s try talk about some Likeable Things again. Crystal Visions: Last year Alana and I brainstormed a party based on what was my obsessio...
My Baba, Polly, only went to school for three years. When her younger sister was born, it was expected that she stay home to look after her younger siblings. Without even a complete elementary school...
The topic of the dunes had come up before at the Cabin. The idea, however, of leaving behind the prime reclining territory of the lakeside dock proved too arduous and so the first ever Cabin field t...
Yesterday I sold my Canon G10. It was a great camera but I only had it for a short while before I finally had the guts to put up the cash for a DSLR. I thought I might use the G10 as an on the go cam...
Some photos of Brooke, Leslie and Rupert at the Atrium in Victoria. Jordan very nicely got me a 50mm lens for Christmas and this was a little practice session. It’s weird using it. I’ve b...
Since I’ve been living in Vancouver for the last year, Jordan’s apartment has taken on a bit of a bachelor vibe. For the record, I am a genuine fan of the black velvet beauty.
The landscape en route to Monument Valley was endlessly fascinating. Red and pink rock stretched in all directions from the road, with massive rock towers rising in fat turrets on the horizon, then l...
Knowing we had a full day of driving ahead of us if we wanted to make Monument Valley for sunset (Golden Hour, y’all), Jordan and I left Joshua Tree early. As we drove further inland, through c...
Vancouver has settled into a typical west coast winter, consisting of daily downpours, dark afternoons and a damp chill that gets right into your bones. These summer road trip photos from my BabaR...

Joshua Tree was my favourite stop on our road trip. This may have had something to do with our grand entrance to the park, driving into the rolling hills dotted with strange trees, bathed in the gold...
On the road to Joshua Tree from Palm Springs, Jordan and I stopped to go hiking. We really wanted to get in some hiking on the trip but it was insanely hot. We dragged along so much water and we were...
Here’s what I’ve been doing on the weekends in Victoria lately. Above, meeting a funny owl in a tree in the haunted cemetery park. (UPDATE: It is a Barred Owl or, more adorably, known as ...
