    The “Spanglish” House

    ‘ The Michael J. Fox Theatre in Burnaby, British Columbia, which I blogged about yesterday, was actually the very last Vancouver locale that I had logged away in my location library and, while I have a slew of Seattle area spots that I have yet to write about, I thought that for today I’d mix…

    Some R & R

    ‘ Sorry to have been MIA the past few days.  I had to have minor surgery and have been recuperating.  I hate to take time off during my favorite season, but I should hopefully be back to regularly scheduled programing this week.  Thanks for your patience. ‘
