Good friday morning Oppo. Went for a nice stroll after making it into the garage before the valets start. Some photos. Not many people out other than police.

So then early entry is your valet solution?

Kinda, my wife got a new job so we no longer commute together and I commute early to avoid traffic. This is just an added bonus.

There’s a guy who owns a Lotus Elise and asked if he can park his car all the time and they said yes. I may use that a precedent even though I only have a lowly Fiesta ST.

The Pennsylvania Railroad has a famous and somewhat similar memorial to their workers who died in WWII.

Given that it’s 30 years newer I suppose it could have been inspired by Canada Pacific’s (or perhaps other similar monuments). I believe the distinctive extremely vertical composition of the PRR memorial was novel though.

Have I ever mentioned I really want to live there? Because I really want to live there.

I’ll be staying just outside Vancouver for two nights. Spend the days in the city and surrounding area.

I work right downtown (Coal Harbour neighbourhood) and live out on the edge of Metro Vancouver (Fort Langley) if you wanna grab a beer or something sometime.

Cool. I haven’t figured out my plan/schedule yet, but I’d be down for that if it fit in.

I’m pretty flexible for when/where, let me know when you work out your schedule.

If downtown, Gastown and Granville Island are probably the best neighborhoods for beer

I’ll be there 11/12 and downtown will likely work best. I’ll let you know next week.

OK, Steamworks is a good place that is fairly central.

Cool, yeah that works for me. I’ll text you once I get to Canada Monday. Saved your number so you can delete it

What time were you thinking of meeting up?

Also, I guess I missed the boat on deleting the info, but it isn’t too big of a deal.
