62nd Surfman Award: Bike Month

Bike Month is almost upon us, soon varoius activities will be aplenty for all you bicycle friendly people. The Bells on Bloor ride, The Ride to Work/pancake breakfast at City Hall, and my favourite the Ride for Heart. The pure pleasure of rolling down the DVP on two wheels without any smoggy automobiles is top drawer in my book. All you out there who choose a bicycle over a car is like a city superhero to me - cyclists rock!!!! And as an added bonus, we will never have to be at the whim of a TTC strike.

61st Surfman Award: My beautiful wife

She is brilliant, funny, talented beyond words and a true inspiration to me...she is my wife and I am the luckiest guy around. Her most endearing quality though is her kindness for all sentient beings. She truly makes me want to be a better person everyday, and for that I am thankful and blessed. Thank you T for being the yin to my yang, and dancing like "Hawkeye" with me in the kitchen.

60th Surfman Award: Mexico Vacation

Recently T & me had the pleasure of vacationing in lovely San Miguel, Mexico. The weather was 25 celius and sunny every day, and no humidity...pure bliss. I am ready to retire there and enjoy a daily siesta between 2-4pm. It was so nice to escape our winter storms, I am so sick of snow...please let it be over. The picture that accompanies this post was taken by my lovely wife T of these most excellent dudes and their guitars, the pic just says Mexico. There appears to be a really strong infrastructure set up between the retired North Americans and Europeans and the Mexican residents of San Miguel, it is a relationship that appears to benifit all parties. At first I did not want to go but I ended up having a wonderful time full of many adventures discovering new and exciting sites and faboulous brunch places set w/n various gardens around the city. And a special thank-you to my mother-in-law Anne for acting as our tour guide and chauffer, she is the best!
