One of my favourite things to do in the last couple weeks or so has been to watch the robin who hangs out in our garden all the time. He doesn’t seem to mind sharing the backyard with Lori and me, even when I make noise using the barbecue. The only time he doesn’t like being here is when orange cat shows up on her daily patrol through the neighbourhood backyards. We also had a blue jay come by a few times. But never when I had the camera within reach. Hope he comes back again too.

Surprise trip to Germany

by Martin · Jun 8, 2009

Lori “conspired” with my colleagues to send me on a surprise birthday trip to Germany. In “Amazing Race” style, I followed instructions from 16 envelopes that took me to different places in Germany, where friends and family had prepared different surprises for me. It was such an awesome week, and I am so lucky to have such amazing colleagues, friends and family. Oh, and Lori is the best wife ever!
