Christmas Letter 2019

Posted by on Wednesday, December 25, 2019, In : Holidays 
Dear Family, Friends, and Followers,

Another year has passed, and we are back at the holiday season again. And as some of you already are aware, this has been a particularly interesting year for me.

The big news for me this year was all medical related. Back in April I had a sudden medical issue - I won't go into details but it was an issue that was supposed to be dealt with twenty years ago, and that my father knew about at the time, but chose to hide it from me for purely selfish reasons. S...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my Canadian friends and family. Today is a day when we should all remember and by thankful that we live in one of the greatest countries in the world, in one of the best eras in history. And that is even more true for those who are fortunate enough to be in good health, with good lives and careers, and surrounded by their loved ones this year (or at least with their families :) ).

There truly is much for all of us to be thankful for this year - HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Christmas Letter 2018

Posted by on Tuesday, December 25, 2018, In : Holidays 
It's Christmas Day!

Another year has passed, and it has been an especially productive year for me. I do apologize in advance if this sounds like boasting, but this has been my best year in a long time and I am just so happy that the dark times are starting to be over now. 

As I reported last year, I have been building up my visualization and rendering business over the past twelve months in addition to my work as a physicist and research scientist. Early in the year I was kept busy developing s...

Christmas Letter 2017

Posted by on Monday, December 25, 2017, In : Holidays 
Dear Friends & Family,

Here we are once more at the holiday season, looking back on a very wild year (both for me personally and for the world at large). The yard is lit, the tree is up and decorated, and the gifts are bought and wrapped. It is Christmas Eve and the house smells of all the traditional Christmas baking. It is time to relax and enjoy some time off.

For me this has been a year of obstacles, all of which have been overcome. It started with a month long snowstorm - which for most pe...

Happy 150th Anniversary Canada!

In 1867 a group of visionaries got together and united a diverse collection of British colonies into a single country. The new nation was connected by a single railway, and little else. It was a country of Irish immigrants on the east coast, an entire province of French immigrants and cities that feel more European than anything one would expect in North America, prairie provinces with entire communities of Scottish, Ukrainian, and Romanian settlers who kept the...

Christmas Letter 2016

Posted by on Monday, January 2, 2017, In : Holidays 
Its that time of year again – time to overeat, overdecorate, and generally overindulge in everything. The year is over, and it is time to relax and prepare for the new year.

This year has not been a great one for many people worldwide, and while I have had no major problems this year it hasn't been filled with great leaps forward either. But it has been a generally enjoyable year, and one filled with minor accomplishments.

As always I have been taking interesting courses online through the y...

Happy Canada Day!!

A day to celebrate the greatest country in the world, where citizens are able to enjoy so many freedoms and comforts - especially this year when the country is under new management! We often take our country for granted, but on this one day of the year we really should take a moment to appreciate how truly wonderful this land of ours is!

2015 Christmas Letter

Posted by on Thursday, December 24, 2015, In : Holidays 
Merry Christmas Everyone!!

This has been such a busy year that I cannot believe we are already back at Christmas Day. Time seems to fly by faster than I can keep track of it lately!

I am still keeping busy with my variety of projects, and as always feeling driven to be doing even more! Never one to miss an opportunity for further education, I spent most of the Spring months taking some online courses in graduate level robotics and artificial intelligence, and in the summer I continued my studie...

Remembrance Day

Posted by on Wednesday, November 11, 2015, In : Holidays 

As Remembrance day arrives again, and people around the world (or at least the Commonwealth) take time to remember the sacrifices of so many young men and women in too many wars, peacekeeping missions, and 'police actions', it is also a good time for individuals to look back on their own family members and extended family members who served. Whether they were killed, injured, or simply gave years of their lives for the common good, it is worth remembering what they did for all of us.

For my fa...

Happy Easter!!

Happy Easter to all of my friends and family, both immediate and extended. It is a great time to enjoy the coming of Spring (or maybe that only happens in sunny Victoria) and to revel in the joy of sugar-fueled children hunting for treats!
