These were all taken around Minnekada in Port Coquitlam where my family live and where I love to go hiking and biking. They were taken over the months of March and April, 2004. The exception is the lone Vancouver shot, but I do plan to undertake an intimate Vancouver photoshoot over the summer when I can get better shots. Maybe Victoria too, but that's not a promise.
I go biking here all the time.
They have awesome cats.
