Do you like going outside? How about taking pictures? Well then the Worldwide Photo Walk might just be for you! And, honestly you probably don’t even have to like going outside too much since it's only a few hours! =)

Our family loves fireworks. A fascination for sparkly lights and thunderous explosions takes us north every year for Canada day. Our destination of choice is Victoria, BC. Similar to Seattle, Victoria is a city that can be approached by boat, however, that’s about where the similarities end.  Seattle with several high-rises adorning its skyline is quite impressive when approached by boat but can often times feel cold to a pedestrian. Grey weather and tall buildings lack softness at ground level creating a very urban environment.

Grouparchitect’s first Happy Hour of 2010 is rapidly approaching! This will be the first chance to see the new glass design and see what Brian’s been cooking up in the garage. More importantly it’s another chance to support a great cause! This time around we’ll be supporting the American Lung Association through the Climb for Clean Air. I will be summiting Mt. Rainier in effort to raise awareness for lung disease and support the local chapter of the ALA. You can get more in depth info from my wife and I on our climbing blog EricksonsClimb.
