Stone Cold

I posted the back side of this hotel a while ago. This is the front side. Welcoming, isn't it?

Tug-ged

Tugboat parking at New West Quay. It never gets tiring taking photos down by the river.

Trapp-ed

It seems the top levels of this building on Columbia are in disuse as they seem to be covered over and, interestingly, there are trees sprouting along the ledge underneath the uppermost windows. At one point a couple of years ago this building was slated to be renovated into housing for homeless women, but that hasn't yet happened.

Columns

Main entrance to Herbert Spencer Elementary.

Annexe

A typical problem in most elementary schools is too many students and not enough classrooms. It seems the space needed is always underestimated. The solution? An annexe, or two, or five. These are the nicest detached classrooms I've seen at any school.

If you squint, at the very left of the photo you can just see the top of a snow-capped mountain, and at the right you can see a lower mountain with only trees.

Blossom

The most obvious sign that spring is on the way is when the cherry trees blossom. This little guy is nothing compared to some of the huge trees in Vancouver.

River's Edge

A typical sight along the Fraser River are bleached out trees that have spend many a day floating the river, being battered by the sun's rays and the waves.
