Caption --> Summer
Hiatus: Well folks it is time for the Team Vancouverites
Captain to take a bit of a summer break and catch some rays
other than the usual cathode variety, and to make use of the
BBQ and to enjoy all of those normal summery things that we
live the rest of the year waiting for. But if there is anybody
out there who needs their V.c fix, I will be updating things
sporadically as well as redesigning the site's template, so
take heart, there are things to look forward to.
See you soon. »»» TVC |

Miniature
Stairs
Two blocks away, I look
for the miniature garden
where forty years ago
someone created tiny
houses, built a small pond
and set a toy train track
running through thin maples;
a whole village-in-miniature
walled off from the rest
of the garden with a wire fence.
