My daily series of Olympic recaps continues as I share my personal experiences through photos. Day Two, February 13, 2010 Probably the biggest highlight of the day for me was watching women’s hockey at Canada Hockey Place. The Canadian team skated over Slovakia 18-0 (shots on goal 67-9) but the Slovkian team still raised their [...]

For the last few years I have been profiling the events and highlights of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Games. Now that they’re here, I’m out and about every day either going to Olympic events, hanging out at hospitality houses, or creating content with friends.

Here in Iowa, it’s a bit strange to see so many 2010 signs and party favours in the store since as a Vancouverite, I feel a sort of ownership over those numbers. For the last seven years we’ve been talking about “2010″ an how it will change the City. Now that it’s here (and the [...]

My year in review was going to consist of several posts that would each feature images and descriptions of all that I have seen, accomplished and valued in 2009. However, I have decided to fit everything into a single entry instead. That’s not to say I didn’t do a lot this year, quite the contrary [...]

I’m looking for a love song about Vancouver. It can be punk, rock, alternative, folky and yeah, I guess I’ll even accept country. I’ve been hearing Empire State of Mind so much lately and I have come to realize that there are so many songs about how wonderful California and New York are but what [...]
