the sky

If you happened to be in a part of BC (or really anywhere in the northern hemisphere) and you have a clear view of the night sky - tonight, tomorrow and Thursday night are nights to look up. The best meteor shower happens over the next few days. Tomorrow is probably the best night for it - but it picks up steam tonight. (google Perseids for more info)

If there happens to be a break in the sky tonight I'm heading out on the deck to try and get some photos... but of course - there is a nasty storm that has rolled in here and I'd be surprised if it breaks between now and midnight (that's when I turn into a pumpkin... well on some nights).

And now for some more trip photos... we went to Edmonton and took in West Edmonton Mall - the guys went to the water park and we also went to the Royal Alberta Museum - which was great - the guys loved it.


Here are the boys at Alberta Government House - a beautiful building in front of the Royal Alberta Museum... the gardens are very nice that surround the building... Edmonton should consider how they can stretch that beauty across the entire city...
