This morning I woke at my brother-in-law’s place, propping myself up on his sofa to continue plugging away at the current project’s web code, extending and customizing WordPress with lots of PHP and some MySQL. After a few hours it was time for break. Took the kids up into the forest at Grouse Mountain. I joined Sofia and Astrid in pretending we were archers, fighting off an army in the woods. We weaved around the trees and I stepped in a pile of fresh bear poo. Got back to the car where Lesley was reading her book. Turned on the kids’ mix cd with Tom Waits and Screaming Jay, and ate a banana muffin while driving down the hill in crisp autumn mountain sun.
