September 17, 2017. I spent the day working on the Contact North paper. I really wanted to be out cycling, but work takes priority. On the other hand, had I been away, I would have missed this beautiful monarch butterfly in the back yard.
March 31, 2023. March ended with a snowstorm, visible behind the palm tree in my office. I'm ready for winter to be finished now. Spent the full day on my tech barriers report. Not quite done but it will be off my desk by Monday. https://flic.kr/p/2oqwaJy
March 1, 2024. This is CN6200, a train (obviously) on display in front of the Museum of Science and Technology in Ottawa, now for some reason called Ingenium. It was my absolute favourite museum when I was a kid, though I haven't been back since it was closed and then redeveloped a few years ago. I miss the old Atlas rocket that used to be in front, but it was deteriorating in the weather. I was just nearby getting a nice bike rack fitted for my car - I paid more, but it will pay for itself protecting both the bikes and the car from damage. This I did during my lunch break working from the office in Ottawa, where I spent the day working on a presentation we're doing for the Canadian Association of Research Ethics Boards in a few months (I'm doing it with other people so I can't just leave it to the last minute like normal). https://flic.kr/p/2pBfohE
March 2, 2024. The frozen surface of Dow's lake with a sheen of meltwater on it. This was a view as I took an 11 km ride on my new bicycle today. First ride of the year, first ride on the new bike. The bike exceeded my expectations, and though it was cold and still icy, the ride was a great start to the year. https://flic.kr/p/2pBgiGM
