The river is up this morning at 645am in Lillooet, and the debris and mud is significant. #ChilcotinLandslide

At 930pm, still no sign of debris here in Lillooet. A steady stream of locals drive to the old Bridge, take look and exchange spotty info. Someone said the surge had begun at Big Bar, a 2-hr drive up-river, @ about 815pm. No doubt we'll see something in the morning. #bcslide

Even though they didn't move on, I'm still glad I could finally catch one game. Great final effort @Canucks

Seriously @CityofVancouver why do you keep approving light pollution like this? It's not even attractive, it's just annoying. #westend #lightpollution #backwards

As a resident of the West End, it was just a matter of time that someone was going to jump in my car as I stopped to parallel park, thinking I'm their Uber. As a bonus, the couple were dressed as Fred and Wilma Flintstone. We all had a good laugh.

Caused excitement in Lillooet tonight After much checking, reported unusual smoke, fire chief & volunteer engine arrived. They found neighbour having a "little fire" in her backyard, next to a forest. Tinder dry conditions here & seeing water helicopters every day...

Tonight's walk. Mainly just me and the crickets.

High-tech pigeon repellant sytem is working remarkably well. #westend

That was exactly what I was looking for this morning, a rabbit mooning me in my latte.

Marketing piece that came with my clothing order. How many thousands of hours I spent writing ad copy, how different it would be if I were starting today. #ChatGPT #copywriting

So excited. I finally realized that these wonderful plants are the result of a very special strain of garlic cloves I had planted months ago. I can't wait to taste them.

I think I might be a convert. #pickleball

This low-key Parisien gem is nice to have within walking distance. #Westend
