Tidbits
Sleepover at Ikea - Maybe this is the only way to get to the $1 early enough…
A ramen bath - Japanese spa with special baths resembling instant noodles. I wanna play!
Old age homes for dogs - 1) Old dogs don’t like to be abandoned at strange places. 2) Playing with young puppies will probably cause the older dogs to die faster due to exhaustion.
A remote-controlled pigeon - Oh the poor thing…
An article on a brilliant method of teaching grade schoolers about bats and rabies. I smell a lawsuit.
Will trade beer for Crumpler bags. Tempted by the beanbag and messenger bags…

So first, it was nice to only have to drive 3 hrs to get to our destination for once, and second, it was the perfect weekend to spend near the water, being so hot and sunny. We left Toronto on Saturday morning and came back Monday night.
Ah California, where you can surf in the morning and ski in the afternoon!

Mike wanted to go skiing at Tahoe this season, and had vacation booked for the Family Day week even before we decided to go to Vancouver for New Years. And even after Vancouver and Whistler, he still wanted to go to California. We then realized that the weekend leading…
2nd Adirondacks Weekend
October 23, 2009 | Travels |
Over the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend, we went to Adirondacks park in Upstate New York. We figured it would be good to go somewhere in the US on a Canadian long weekend, but alas, they have their US Columbus Day weekend then as well. The last time we were there…
