Staying in the city during the holidays is the best, because everyone leaves.

Not sure about the design choice of the stage; so angular when everything else is curvy.

This is City Hall’s recent renovation; remember it had that little garden area off to the right) #BenefitOfBlogging I also guarded an event there in 2008

Went to the movies! A bi-annual occurrence. Second 3D movie ever.

It was IronMan 3, and maybe the best movie I’ve seen in years.

What am I wearing? Not jogging pants, at least.

It’s a lazy day today. After I hit publish, I have to polish next week’s column (about towing things), then I’m back on my mini-break from online.

Really liking this Monday – Friday publishing schedule I’ve been gravitating toward; going to keep moving KeriBlog in that direction.

Speaking of direction, had a great coffee with my lawyer, Martin. I’ve introduced you before.

When I started all this online stuff back in 2007, I took it a bit more seriously than most; still probably do.

I’m very aware of the weight of what I post online.  For example, all ‘Canadian Explorer’ episodes are set to royalty free music; I always get on-camera acknowledgement and permission from the stranger I just filmed, they know it will be published on the internet; this time Martin helped out with contract stuff, because I have an employee now, so how do I properly paperwork that? Like that.

We’ve been a pair for WOAH just did the math on that… 5 years now. NICE.

Above is a collage I made to celebrate OOK’s 3rd birthday April 2011.

Next week I’ve got Alberta to tell you about; made it to the Toronto Sun today for the first time; things are really starting to fall into a rhythm with Charlotte and I; armoured car shopping; it’s the 6th year of my cycling team; off to Oregon soon with Acura; and I think I may have invented the thing of all things yeaterday, a solution of epic proportions.

If it works, I’m going to link back to this paragraph, and it’ll be like woah, how’d you stay so calm Keri… it’s that good an idea. First time I’ve ever blogged the word ‘epic’.

kk enjoy the second half of May TwoFour!!
Weather couldn’t be better EH.

Waka-waka.

Favourite line:

The fastest way to get in a crash, is to go slow.

Made the cover again.

There will be dinosaurs!

I’ve been once before, it’s the largest and most significant concentration of fossils in the world. Another #1 for Canada <3

Pumped. Plus also nice, they invited KeriBlog not the paper.  I’ll be 2 hours behind you, home late Thursday night.

I’ve only been to Alberta once to visit my brother Brooks.

But I love pickup trucks, always have.

I’m sick, been fighting off a fever. Cross your fingers please the plane doesn’t make it worse.  I’m convinced I’m winning because of that time I didn’t take penicillin, and created MegaImmuneSystem.

Stood on my tiptoes with the rest of Canada last night. 4-1 gone in 15 minutes baffles me.  Least our astronaut Chris Hadfield got home safe, welcome home to him eh! His YouTube Channel was fantastic.

Came home this evening to a new Blackberry Q10, thanks TELUS!

I tested the Z10 (no keyboard), now this one.  I’m more excited for this model, because the QWERTY keyboard was what stopped me from switching to iPhone for so long.

I missed that and BBM… which interesting, Blackbery announced today that they’re going to give it away for both iPhone and Android this summer, BBM for all!  

My cell phone history.

Original post.

(you bet I wore the StarTac in that clip on my belt, like a boss)

Picked up a cupcake during errands, to celebrate a phone call.

5 years ago I set a goal / benchmark this one thing through my blog, and out of the blue today at 3pm my phone rang, and a gentleman said hello, then made it come true.

I can’t tell you what it is without sabotaging something, I’m sorry, not doing this to be mysterious, and mostly this is more for me than you (documenting), but ya, big blog win :)

Kay I have to finish packing, update my camera’s software, news sourced and written for Autonet, flight leaves at noon.

TTY from Alberta!

The radio’s been locked for years since a battery failure, and the screen broke so I can’t see to enter the codes.

I have the codes because I blogged them, see:

Security is relative.

For a while I played, “get the code before it kicks me out after 2 failed attempts”, but it got old. So I just listened to silence, then in February found that egg in the States. It’s  ’As Seen on TV’, love that stuff.

The car is a ’99 Jetta.

The song is composer Philip Glass, titled La Belle & la Bête, played by Angele Dubeau & La Pieta.

It’s like opposite land on the other side of that fence, eh.

Spotted during the test drive of Hyundai’s all-new Santa Fe in California.

Saw lots of border cops patrolling the hillside on bikes, drove through a temporary pop-up customs checkpoint, serious stuff. We don’t have anything like this in Canada, for which I’m grateful.

I walked through a turnstile into Mexico a few years ago. It was amazingly easy to enter the country, it was literally a turnstile like in the subway; not as easy to get out.  Overheard lots of people were there for “dentist appointments“.

It’s my latest OCD song. I know I’m a bit late to it, but mashups are awesome eh.

Remember my invention, Dance Packing ha. I dance through all the chores.

I’m mostly blogging this because the category Cars was due for a ‘face behind the blog’ post.
