I'll be missing christmas again this year because of my work schedule so I thought it could be interesting to compensate by doing something special in early january ( Read more... )

Ahh the return of the cold season, I cannot ride my bike anymore because it is stored for the winter. That means I needed to find something to entertain me a little. I had bought this DIY preamplifier kit a while back to keep me occupied during the winter. I completed the project in 2 days. Although I am glad that it went so well and that it ( Read more... )

After coming back from British Colombia earlier than expected, I took the bike and decided to visit Maine and drive to Acadia National Park. It was supposed to be my vacation destination last year but it didn't work as planned so I wanted to give it a second try. I only stayed there one night but I really had a great time there (and great weather ( Read more... )

Came back home very early this morning, eastern time. And despite the horrible moment I spent in the office of Royal Carribean, I'm happy about my vacation. Me and my parents had a great time on Vancouver Island and because of the obstacles we had to go through, I believe we were able to grow even closer ( Read more... )

Over a year ago I decided I'd bring my parents on a cruise to Alaska and finally give them an opportunity to travel a little bit which they never really did before as they do not speak english.

With this investment, I should have more motivation ( Read more... )

On thursday morning, I have the surprise to find water in my bedroom when I get out of the shower and it stinks really bad! I call my landlord about it but he is busy so I call a plumber and a group specialised in cleaning after water hasards causing property damage. It turns out that the check valve on the exit of my sewage water pump broke and ( Read more... )

Thanks to everyone for their comments on my last post. It's appreciated ( Read more... )

Today I went on a snowmobile expedition to Crater Lake. The temperature didn't look too bad (around -15 Celcius) however the wind was over 50 km/h and without me noticing anything, it started to freeze my cheeks through the small gaps in my full-face helmet. After 7 hours of riding in the blowing snow, I notice that my face has hardened on both of ( Read more... )
