Flaneur and observer of the urban condition. Professional urban designer, but I don’t post much about the subject as a lot is said more eloquently by others. Scale models, mountain bike rides, gardening.

Get home from vacation to see another giant tree removed for another 8-plex project across the street. Not easy to take when we don’t have boulevard trees in my community, and the city only demands the bare minimum of new landscaping. #yegcc #yeg

Starting a new kit here in the mountains. It’s kind of become a thing where I start a build while camping and finish it at home. This one is for the local IPMS “Anything by Revell” group build. #scalemodels #histscalemodels

It’s just right out here in the mountains. Jasper, Alberta. Valley of the Five Lakes trail.

Yesterday I made a BBQ sauce of homemade apple cider and Dr Pepper. A nice compliment to 4 hr pulled pork and home made slaw, with almost every ingredient from the garden. Now the hock and leftovers have become red beans and rice. I am a true southern gentleman. 🌱

Trucks are meant to be used; but it still stings when that first bit of damage happens. My spotless, new to me truck now has a bunch of micro dings all over the tail gate because buddy had the load too high and dropped 3/4 gravel all over the place. 🤨

Getting closer to finished. Just a tiny bit of detail painting and some splash mud left to go. Italeria “Toyota Land Cruiser” in 1/24 scale. Done up as a beat up BC mountain truck just like I remember them. A bit of fishing, camping and hiking awaits! #scalemodels #histscalemodels

Drove by a golf course which was totally empty for an absolutely spectacular Saturday afternoon. So tempted to play a walk on round of one armed golf. #yegwx

My son is with his orchestra. I think he’s up in the second half. Regardless it’s some classical for your work day or evening. www.youtube.com/live/R1yJdgg...

It’s killing me that I can’t get out and ride my mountain bike. The local trails are perfect at exactly the same time my Dr says no riding for 3 months. Grrrrrr. #yegwx #yegbike

Been sort of busy building some things. WIP snippet of a diorama meant to represent the environment of the Rocky Mountain trench near Radium Hotsprings. All scratch built with locally collected rocks for some terroir. #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Maybe it’s the Albertan in me but I deeply oppose joining the EU. It’s crazy talk IMO. Closer trade and cultural ties? sure I’m all for it, but I’m not European and nor is Canada. Crazy talk.

I can’t believe Alberta is wasting time with the separatist referendum. All the stupidity of Brexit without the passion or emotion of the Quebec referendum. It’s actually really embarrassing. #ableg #cdnpoli

Doing some Urban-X in my own city. Love this spot for a pint. Smell of railroad ties, industrial welding, and paint in the air. (Not sarcastic. I really do like the smell of a rail yard.) #yeg #oddcompany

This building could be the anchor to something great. A massive site right next to Whyte and close to UofA in our best neighbourhood. Not that it’s going to survive CPKC’s attitude towards historic structures, and Edmonton’s current state of total disregard for our built history. #yegcc #yeg

It’s nice to scroll the scale model builds but it’s killing me that I can’t do anything right now. No biking, no gardening, no golf, no scale models all because of a torn bicep and the surgery to repair it. (Woe is me post)

This is the first in a series on the Memorial Organ in Convocation Hall. It looks at the U of A's involvement in the first two world wars, and the creation of the memorial. #UAlberta #yegheritage I'd appreciate your help in spreading the word. Please repost and share the article widely.

I think I’m cranky about the infill going up around me because it looks and feels like the public housing I grew up in. The ghetto is always chasing me.

In other European thoughts…I’m sorry that central and northern Alberta stole all your rain. It’s been raining record setting buckets all summer and I’m so sick of it. #yegwx

Golf and bike ride pics from last week. Probably the last of the year as I’ve gone and torn a tendon or something in my arm. Waiting on an ultrasound to see how bad it is. :(

Just back from BC. Don’t go if you are thinking about it. The place is a tinderbox and it’s just smoke everywhere. Normally there are huge mountains and lakes in the background of these images.

Well that was a fun 24 hours in Radium, BC. No power, No gas, highway closed, stores closed, spotty cell service. People on the highway out of BC were holding signs offering $100 for 20L of gas. #endtimes

If this is true, and Anthropic (and other AI companies) are destroying our collective cultural heritage, that makes them no better than ISIS and the Taliban.

It’s a spaceship! With space weathering! Bandai 1/48 scale Star Wars “Snowspeeder”. It’s my own interpretation of what a Snowspeeder should be. Ditched most of the kit decals and added my own. Just about finished and diorama on the way… #scalemodels
