Been enjoying some Powerpoint discussions in an editors’ group, and posted this photo of one of my old PP Beta 0.95 files : – ).

Sisters Sharing Sunlight
Came up for a breather from my basement office to find new rescue Sora-chan stretched out near her big sister Midori, sharing the sunlight. So cute!
Sora-chan continues to make progress. This is the first time I found her flaked out in the living room, a big move from her usual sleeping place under the bed : – ).
Leading Kids on Tour of Byrne Creek in Burnaby, BC
Every summer the City of Burnaby Parks Department has summer camps for kids at Ron McLean Park in SE Burnaby. For the second year, Byrne Creek Streamkeepers were asked to take the kids on a tour of the creek.
This year I was the leader, and it was a blast. We walked from the park down to the creek, and back, talking about the local fish, wildlife, plants, etc.
The famous Byrne Creek mini-Grind : – ).
Hummingbird at Front Door Feeder
A quick snap or two as we arrived home from our walk yesterday.
Maiden in North Vancouver
Oh my gosh, so cool! We ran across Maiden on our visit to Vancouver’s north shore today.
All woman-crewed around-the-world sailing race competitor in 1990. I had not been aware of this!
They faced so many doubters and obstacles, and prevailed. And now she continues as a beacon for educating disadvantaged girls around the world.
Inspiring.
Wonderful to see a flotilla of First Nations canoes welcoming, honoring, and visiting. I hope I’m not intruding when I say FNs in general, and FN women in particular, deserve such support and recognition.
Fave Flower Shots from New Westminster Quay

To Bee or Not to Bee
Loved seeing lots of buzzers working hard today! North Vancouver and New Westminster.
Yumi Becomes Full, Accredited CPA!
Yahoo!
“I finally got designated as CPA!” said my hard-working wife and partner, Yumi Kosaka. “Thank you everyone for your support and encouragement. Paul got me flowers and a paper name plate to celebrate 
. It has been a long road, but I’m glad I finally got it!”
New Rescue Sora-Chan Accepts Us as Family!
Final Sora-chan progress report for the day. First ever cuddle for our gradually warming new rescue! Lasted about five seconds, but we all sat on the living-room floor together, and she went round and round us, rubbing her head and chin on hands, feet, knees.
We’re marked now, and family for life. Thank you, Sora.
New Kitty Still Hiding, But Play Brings Her Out
When new kitty is still hiding, it’s time to go fishing 
After half an hour of play, dunno who is more tired, me or her, but I know damn well she’ll be raring to go again soon!
Got a bite!
Mmm, yummy fake feathers. . . ?
Good way to get her on the cat tree — she still hasn’t been bold enough to try it on her own. Now she knows where it is, and is eyeing it appreciatively though it’s still too exposed for her comfort.
Look out, Yumi’s heron is going to get you!
