Big storm last night. Tree just missed the house. Might need to come down though.
Happy Canada Day!

Early morning flood
Didn’t enjoy wading to my car this morning. Not one bit. This incessant rain is getting me down a little.
Freezing at Ben’s soccer game
Let there be paint!
Santa’s Revenge
Big gingerbread house competition at work today. We knew we couldn’t compete with the fancy decorating, so went in a different direction.
Oh, the humanity!!Hockey Travels
Robyn and I are on the second leg of our hockey weekend. Yesterday was Swift Current. This morning we headed southeast to Glentworth Sk to face the Wood River Whirling Dervishes (at least I thin that’s there name.)
It was a great drive. We saw a coyote and several deer, including a large buck. The remoteness was fascinating and overwhelming. I’d have a lot of trouble adjusting to living 100km+ from the nearest grocery store. I stopped for some pics halfway along the 170km drive from Swift Current.Even Subway needs McD’s now and then
Great video on doodling
Vi Hart puts math in order by ignoring his teacher and doodling. From Cory Doctorow:
Vi Hart’s “Mathematical Doodling” is a series of hilarious and informative narrated videos explaining doodle-games that you can play to explain mathematical concepts in a way that’s much more intuitive than the traditional math-class methodologies. [Here] is binary trees, but be sure and click through to “Snakes + Graphs” — a wonderful, captivating potted graph theory explanation.
Candygrams might consider some of the October themes for next year.
