A Sad And Lonely Place

It’s the last day on the show, and as is so often the case, it’s a looong day. I’m waiting for my shot to render, so I can go home (through a really miserable stormy and rainy night) to get a few hours of sleep. Tomorrow… well… later today we’ll finally finish, and I’ll hopefully get a full weekend afterwards. With my family. I hope they still know what I look like.

And then – promise! – there will be more and merrier posts on here. With more and merrier pictures. 🙂

Good morning, Europe! Have a great day!

Happy New Year!

So much has happened in the last few days, I don’t even know where to start. For example, in a final push we were able to finalize all the hard work, dedication, blood, sweat, tears and will-power that went into what we have decided to call ‘Last Year’ and have already started a new, even more ambitious project, tentatively titled ‘2016’. What’s that you’re saying? You came up with the same title for your current project?? Damn… well, anyway: good luck with that!  Read more

Earthquake

…and suddenly the world shakes. We had a 4.8-magnitude earthquake last night. We hadn’t planned for it, so it came as a mild surprise. 🙂 Everything’s fine, though. Albert didn’t even wake up.

Season’s Greetings

Hey family and friends!

It’s a bit lonely without you. That’s true every day, but especially now, for Christmas. We’d like to have you around, to eat Vanillekipferl and Springerle with and reminisce about the past year. Hand out a few hugs, while we’re at it. And thank you for being such a magnificent bunch. It’s not the same without you.

Instead, we’ll head out to the beach and enjoy the sunshine and clear view of Vancouver Island today. You can’t have everything, right?

Y’all take care, be healthy and happy, and have a spectacular start into an equally spectacular 2016! We’re looking forward to seeing all of you again in person!

And now, in case you haven’t been seeing enough of Albert, here’s a look back at how far he’s come. 🙂 Enjoy. See you soon.

New Death Defying Adventures In the Canadian Wild And Other Stories

You will not believe what happened next. No, seriously, you will. It’s nothing special. But I thought, a little sensationalism wouldn’t hurt, after the decades we haven’t given a sign of life. After the great flood came and went. After the blizzard buried us in three snow flakes or four. After wild animals have taken over our habitat. After the days have turned to nights and the weekends to mere Sundays. Are you still following? Read more

Of Exposure And Salvation

Photo stuff ahead! You’ve been warned!

When was the last time you were looking forward to something? I mean really looking forward to it, not just, you know… thinking “Thank God it’s Friday tomorrow. I’m looking forward to the weekend.” No, not that kind. The kind where you actually picture every little step of something and can’t wait for it to happen. Read more
