owning body, mind, and soul." And no, I'm not talking about blogging. It's lyrics from a Starfield song, Starfield being the band that I saw in concert in Vancouver this past Saturday night. It was definitely the highlight of my weekend, not to take anything away from the euchre and Robo Rally that I played on Friday night, or the ferry rides back and forth from the island ... I think Alison would agree that it was the most amazing part of the weekend as well, especially as it was her first time seeing them.
Anyway (I won't go on and on about the show unless someone asks questions about it) getting to Vancouver (via bus, bus, ferry, bus, and bus) took up Saturday morning and afternoon, and we got to the show at about the right time to line up. So waiting and watching was Saturday night, and Sunday was spent first walking Broadway street of Vancouver, and then taking a bunch of buses back to the ferry to get back 'home'. Riding along Granville we saw an array of architecturally interesting houses (or mansions, I guess some of them could be classified as), which was pretty cool. Vancouver, both of us agreed, is a beautiful city, and we plan to go back for a visit someday when we have time to go downtown and look around. The mountains to the North of the city were spectacular!
So, I hav a lot of work to do over the next couple of weeks, so I'm going to get back at it. I have a hockey tournament this weekend up in Parksville, so that's going to considerably deplete the amount of time I'll have for school work, not that it's not worth the sacrifice ... :D
Oh, and one more thing that's not helping save time; I was lent a book called Dragon Weather by Lawrence Watt-Evans ... it's captivated me.

Hi Meg, I can't remember what i was doing on Saturday but I was hoping you felt better and got to starfield ok. I remember doing that ferry trip a couple of times when i worked in Alert bay. it was always an awesome journey. I would then catch a bus to Nanaimo and usually a little Cessna float plane up to Alert Bay. Kind of like a dream now but sometime like not so long ago.
Sounds like everything is going well there,as I felt it would . A great experience and learning. Our God is good all the time.
Love you tons bigoooooooooooos and x.s Mom
I was feeling better, definitely! Glad you found my blog ...
xoxox back!
I caught Starfield in Cambridge about a month ago. They were good. real good.
Are they ever .. they have a very nice blend between comedy, musicianship, and worship. :)
