Gastown is named after "Gassy Jack" not due to his passing of gas, but due to his entertaining story telling.
I am not sure about Kitsilano though... I will have to do some research and get back to you!

I think Kitsilano is a much more exotic interesting-sounding place than Gastown. Good luck with your move.

Nice post. Life sounds just about perfect.

I remember the food you made at that party - so I'm sure this is some yummy soup. There is a void in Cambridge with out your smile. Merry Christmas, Karen!

Rereading your second paragraph, I believe you have a future in advertising!

You underestimate your skills. Something good will come. Just be alert and open to the possibilities.

We miss you too.

You have been that welcoming face to so many people it’s nice to see you get a taste of your own medicine, so to say. Your endearing aura simply cultivates kindness. In fact, the absence of that aura has left a vacuum out here. :-(

So glad to have crossed paths with you though.

I now have a renewed sense of your passion for dogs. I’ve been living with Gucci for two weeks now, and our relationship has evolved. We now have a clearer sense of each other’s limits, and space needs. In granting that space, a certain respect is garnered, and out of that respect sprouts trust like lush grass, and then it’s like gallivanting with a friend, barefoot on moist open deserted fields, where you can be certain there are no sharp objects protruding from the ground (except maybe the occasional poop).

Yea, I did dogs too.

Karen,it was a pleasure to read your words again. You sound happy in your posts, that makes me happy.

I am an experienced drinker, but novice 'taster'. There is a difference! :-)

Wow,

Sounds like a ton of fun there, lady! Your wine tasting notes are incredibly sophisticated for a "novice." I don't believe that for a second: you drank at Shays, of course you're a sophisticated wine connoisseur. Your evocative prose and gorgeous photos make me want to pack m bags and move to the great white north. Can't wait for further details,

From the "it could be worse" department, they could have promised to put you on the plane anyway, you'd miss your connections and you'd spend TWO DAYS (Dos Dias) in Ft. Lauderdale. Have another margarita, chicas. Good thing you got a new raincoat.
