Winter 2005/06 Video

Here's a wee video I made of some of our winter trips last season.

'Here comes the summer...'

The first official day of summer brought clear blue skies and 80 degree temps due to stay with us for the next while. Hmmm... think I'll nurse a beer on my porch this Friday evening!

Silverdocs - Washington D.C.

Just got back from this festival. I saw a variety of documentary films and made more contacts than I could have imagined. Alpha Cine sponsored the Audience Award, which went to a film called 'Can Mr. Smith Get to Washington Anymore.'

I can not wait until this weekend - it will be the first free weekend for me in over a month. There are a ton of things to do around the house of course, which I'm sure will keep me busy. Or perhaps I should put it this way - Lisa will be keeping me busy!

WORLD CUP FEVER GRIPS SEATTLE!!!

The kick-off the worlds greatest sporting event has got more attention this year than at any other time in the sports history. One only has to look past the under-5's little league section of the Seattle Times alternative sports supplement to find news about this international extravaganza. Buses stopped and traffic came to a standstill as die-hard soccer mom's peered in through unsuspecting living rooms to catch glimpses of the opening ceremony. Yes indeed this is an event of biblical proportions here in the land of the free, the worlds role model extraordinaire. So much so that when I asked a local if they are intent on watching 'U.S.A.' play the Czech Republic this coming monday they looked at me like I had three heads and said "...Hockey season over!"
