Ten Thousand Hours

Dream day with my favourite people. #happiestinthemountains (at Peak of Whistler Mountain)

Keys to Christmas Eve happiness: snow, dogs, and a lil leg stretch. #timetoplay #kayadog #xmas (at Whistler Olympic Park)

Adam and I were pretty devastated when we woke this morning and realized that there was gear missing from the back of our beloved camp-mobile, Strider. We have a strong attachment to the things that became our everyday tools during our adventures through the PNW and the far reaches of northern BC. But when we investigated what was missing, we realized that someone had taken only the essentials: warm clothes, soap, a lot of non-perishable food items. I thought about how draining it is emotionally and logistically to live outside in Vancouver's damp, dark winters. 2016 has been a tumultuous year, and the question I keep coming back to is, how do I transform my fear and frustration into kindness? How do I transform myself into a more graceful human? Today, it means wishing that whoever is wearing my hut booties is safe, dry, and fed, and sending them a bit of love for good measure. #vancity

A wise reminder from @kaimoons to look to those who inspire us to greatness. I won't continue to post about #election2016 . But seeing so many friends asking "how did this happen?" and "what will we do?" compels me to share what little I know. What will we do? We will be strong and smart. We will gaze steadily upon hatred and meet it with grace. We will make good choices and be kind to one another, because those are the things we can control, and they very much matter. Try not to lose heart, friends. We can be afraid, but we can also have faith in each other. I have so much faith in every one of you.

Captured some solitary beauty this morning. (at Chesterman Beach, Tofino)

When it's 8C and pouring, the winter running pile comes out 🌧💨☔️ #oisellevolée #notathleisure #wetcoast

Pumpkins happened. Hocus Pocus happened. #happyhalloween

Blissed out on autumn: pork chop with apples and spaetzle in pan jus, braised purple kale, and roasted beets and carrots 😍 #chopped #dinner

Diametric views and five stormy morning miles with 22, A Million on repeat. It's #fall , y'all. #vancity #running

Adam caught the golden hour tonight ✨ #vancity
