My brother opened for Adam Freeland. How cool is that? So cool.

Great to see tech making positive contributions like this.. Sarasota’s doing pretty well on the solar front, too

De dutch bakery. Love the mix of old and new buildings in Victoria

At A&B sound, which, contrary to opinion I’d heard earlier, is still open (though, with much smaller selection). A healthy selection of blu-ray discs are for sale.

And a good selection of HD-DVD discs, too. Though, now I think the balance is shifting toward Blu-Ray, since most of the major studios are dropping support for HD-DVD.

New Year’s Eve at Sean’s place, hanging out and having fun 🙂

More of Sean’s living room.

Mark with a “Can I get a woohoo?” Midnight strikes and it’s 2008. Then we ran out on the porch, screamed at the top of our lungs and banged pots and pans, which was awesome

Walking by my old highscoool with Karen, saw they had the old grad photos close to the door…

Oh, and look, there’s Karen

And there’s me! Hahah…

Walking to the new Starbucks by yon olde 7-Eleven

My old highschool! Man it looks small. Still have the portables in the back, 13 years later.

The bumper stickers read “Got Grog?” and “I brake for saucy wenches”

Getting lunch with Jim at Azuma…

Outside of Azuma.. shortly hereafter we stopped by the camera store and checked out the Oly E3… had the fastest autofocus I’ve ever seen
