  • It’s Rally day! I’ll be AFK for the whole day getting wet + lost in the woods looking for Tupperware. Good luck @BrandonBell #geocaching #gc #
  • Just heard an MP3 decoding “blip” on CBC radio. I wonder how much music they play has been converted to MP3? #cbc #radio #NorthByNorthwest #
  • Tailspin Rally complete. We finished 1st but due to bonus system won’t know final rank for 3 hrs! #gc #geocaching #
  • Back from Tailspin GeoRally. 11 caches over 90 km. Had 3rd best raw time, but b/c we were the 1st car thru we missed the “tattle” bonuses :( #
  • http://twitpic.com/2kag3 – Earth Hour, Vancouver, BC (Yaletown). Good job at turning out the lights! #
  • http://twitpic.com/2kahg – The public has really embraced Earth Hour here in Vancouver, BC (Yaletown). #earthhour #
  • http://twitpic.com/2kcl5 – Vancouver, BC (Yaletown) during #earthhour and after. The West Coast is the heart of green movement, clearly. #
  • http://twitpic.com/2kcl5 – On close inspection, I see the Hotel Vancouver turned out the lights illuminating their copper roof! #
  • Interestingly enough, although the Hotel Vancouver turned out their roof lights, the Wall Centre didn’t. #earthhour #
