Lodging

The day's grind was getting busy as archaeological consultant work was piling high on my desk. I clocked out at 2 and crossed the border into Canada, luckily two blocks from my house so an easy commute. Credit Union for Canadian Cash, Tim Horton's drive-thru for a iced chai and sandwich, i found Highway 1 traffic through the rain and construction. Finally arriving to Vancouver with some on/off rain breaks, visiting my friend Lori and Krista who were making lanterns. We had hoped to do the fireworks at Spark, but the rain called it a big no. Food and conversations, they were off to Dark 80's and Cave of Bats big halloween dance party in a run down warehouse back entrance through construction as the building will be demolished some day soon. Great music and friends old and new, dancing and drinking, halloween sweets. Bernie dj'ed, got to see Shawna, Lori, Tania, Shannon, Stephanie, Ron, Joe, and many familiar faces. Dancing through the night. Afterwards Lori and I found Taco Kat downstairs for a last minute burrito before the bar was closed. Unmarked speakeasy noisy bar with two Irish lads bartending. Candlelit steps so we many not trip. It was a good night. Crashed on Lori's couch resting up for tomorrow's adventures to the big Sin City Halloween fetish night party.
