Happy #InternationalOysterDay to those who observe. I attended the temple of Fanny Bay Oysters. It's been far too long! Today's local feature was the SunSeeker - a solid fave. I also tried Shigoku and Totten Virginica, both from Washington state. Lovely, as was the rosé prosecco. 👌🏻 🦪🦪🦪🦪🦪🦪🦪🦪🦪

End of an era: this week the elevator at Burrard Station is being replaced. It was the only elevator in @translink.ca system voiced by this gentleman, as far as I know. I've always wondered how this came about, who he is, source of the accent. Are there any Translink historians who can assist?

I don't want to paint all media with same brush, but it appears there are news vultures in our midst. It didn't take long for the word to get out that one victim from the Tumbler Ridge tragedy has been admitted to BC Children's Hospital. This crew is set up directly across from Oak St. entrance.

It would've been my parents' 66th wedding anniversary today. (Dad died in 2015) Who gets married in Garson, MB in the dead of winter? My parents. And she wasn't even pregnant.

On my way to work I stopped by my garden plot to pluck a couple black zebra tomatoes. I planted late, which means I'll be harvesting later too. First time planting this. One plant from the local grocery did splendidly in the manure-rich soil. Will plant again next year. #vancouvergardening

Translink has promised us more service on this route. Nice idea, but it's mostly car traffic screwing things up. #Vancouver #publictransit
