Someone heard that I made movies and wrote music so I was volunteered to write the farewell movie script for my US-bound colleague, Greg. Before it was all over, I ended up writing, filming, directing, and editing the entire thing. No complaints at all; it was a ton of fun and a rewarding way to pay tribute to an great guy to work with. The more effort we put into it, the more reward we got. For those of you who don't work here, you might want to skip the interviews in the middle of the movie. Go to about 9:30 to catch the final act. Bring your hanky; the ending is a tear-jerker (if you work with us, that is).

Ari and I snuck in on Saturday for a quick climb of Mount Sir Donald's classic Northwest Arete. Well, it's a long route - a mile of climbing, so it wasn't really that quick. A stupendous mountain as seen from the Trans-Canadian highway, it's even more impressive up close n' personal. Enjoy the dance.
