After being on the street for over 3 weeks, Picnurbia has attracted people from all walks of life...

And they even brought their own couches. Interesting.

I've already shown a Project 3.6.5. picture of this location on Robson Street, but I'll probably show a few more over the next couple of months as it transforms from a construction site to to new Forever 21 store.

Project 365 Day 238

I saw this t-shirt outside of Bang-On on Robson Street today. These words from Jack Layton's last letter to the country have been spoken and written all week. The truest words I've seen in a very long time.

The memorial for Jack Layton on the steps of the Vancouver Art Gallery may not be quite as large as the one in Toronto, but it was still moving to see this morning. As I was taking today's Project 3.6.5. picture, people came over to sign the book of condolences that will be delivered to Jacks family. There were no dry eyes.

Project 365 Day 235

On the cover of every Canadian Newspaper this morning was a picture of NDP Leader of the Opposition, Jack Layton, who passed away yesterday from Cancer at the age of 61.

Whether or not you agree with his policy, Jack should be remembered for his passion and dedication to the public; his commitment to fairness and families. He was the heart and soul of the NDP and it's sad he won't get to enjoy his time as leader of the opposition. A major blow to the political world. Wishing his family peace and closure.

Project 365 Day 234

The rain decided to show its face today...

That's ok; the plants needed to be watered.

For some reason, the police were out in full force this morning on Robson Street as well. Not sure what that's about.

Tonight at The Railway Club: Jesse D and Jacquie B (poster near the bottom of the picture). They were fantastic even if we did have to leave early due to being old and tired. I tried to capture the model train going around the bar near the ceiling, but it turned out a bit blurry... might have to go back.

Project 365 Day 228

I walk by the Contemporary Art Gallery on Nelson Street almost every day and I can always count on seeing an interesting display in the window.

Today I noticed a "couple" having a little roll in the hay... looks like fun.

Project 365 Day 227

The ladies only seem to get together a couple of times a year... whenever Veronica is visiting from Toronto.

Tonight we chose Vij's to satisfy our palettes, and it did not disappoint. This Project 3.6.5. picture of Chenoa, Melissa, Andrea, Veronica, Carrie, and myself was taken just after we'd all finished chowing down on an amazing feast that I won't soon forget about.

Project 365 Day 226

I did the Grouse Grind today... first time in over 5 years. There's a reason this is today's Project 3.6.5. picture: I looked so awful afterwards, there was no way I was going to let it be captured on film... Mind you, I could have taken a 3.6.5. picture of the ice pack on my knee tonight.

My Friend Jason just spent 65 days riding his motorcycle through all 48 lower states and all 10 Canadian provinces as part of the Answer for Cancer Tour, (ACT). The team's mission was to raise awareness for cancer prevention, as prevention is the ultimate cure.

Today's Project 3.6.5. picture is of myself and Jason just after he arrived at City Hall to have today declared "Answer for Cancer" day in Vancouver. So far they have raised over $400,000! If you'd like to donate, click here.

Way to go Jason and the ACT team!

I love the new Gap Kids UK inspired campaign... With the London Riots happening right now, it might be seen as a bit ironic, but I've always been a fan of the Union Jack.
