Well April came and went like a bolt of lightning! I seriously feel like it was March, then I blinked and it’s now May! Man. I don’t like this speeding by of time! Remember being a little kid and the two months of summer break was like an eternity?! I want THOSE days back! Or at least that speed…and that free time…and maybe those clogs I had in grade five…

Anyway, I hope your April was great. The weather here in Vancouver wasn’t superb, but you know how the saying goes…April showers bring May flowers. Bring on the blooms.

I had a fantastic trip this past month (you may have read the post) to New Orleans! Oh. My. God. You must go. Truly, it’s a remarkable place – the food, people, music, sunshine, history…fantastic.

Here are few snapshots of my April.

Train tracks near my place; me holding a baby alligator in Louisiana; sunset at Rocky Point Park near my home in Port Moody; a philosophical record store downtown Vancouver; spring flowers in my neighbourhood. (See the tiny ant?); close up of an iron gate in the French Quarter in New Orleans; a rose on the street behind my building; a note pinned to a wall in a tiny jazz bar (Fritzel’s) in New Orleans; and Steven and Jason being all fancy in the French Quarter!
