Dinosaurs of the beach
Another day at the beach for me. This time it was a cold windy day at my favourite beach Jericho. This is something you don't expect to see on the beach. A giant excavator picking up huge rocks as if they were feathers. When you stop and watch them they begin to look like prehistoric creatures. Out of place and out of their environment. I am used to seeing these on constructions sites downtown or ripping up city streets. Not on the beach that I love. At first it destroyed the beauty of the beach but as I stood there and watched I began to see how graceful they can be. Something so big and powerful being so delicate and precise. Picking up rocks and arranging them in a specific order. I could picture in my mind dinosaurs with their long slender necks bringing them down to the water to drink. I began to realize that these noisy beasts weren't destroying what I love but instead making it better. They no longer felt out of place. Soon they will be done their work and will move on to their next job but I will always have this picture as proof that dinosaurs like the beach too.

Jour deux
Well today I found my sister's liquor stash. I must say I am quit impressed with it. It is very extensive and diverse. This has got to be bachelorette living at it's best. She makes me seem so lame and boring. Forget going to the liquor store from now on I'm just hitting up my sister when I want a drink. So the plan for today is to grab a few beers and head down to Jericho beach for the day. It's a little cloudy right now but I'm sure it will clear up. I made Jell-o before bed so my breakfast this morning was watermelon Jell-o and a glass of milk. It was surprisingly more filling than I had expected. I am for sure going to grab some fish and chips at the beach today.

C Note
What a long day it's been. I had a baker phone in sick so work was crazy this morning. But I survived a grueling day at work and headed to Jericho Beach. It was such a nice day today and I decided to take the scenic drive along the water front. Looking up at the north shore mountains across the inlet was picture perfect. It has taken awhile for summer to reach us hear on the west coast but when it does you really see the beauty of Vancouver. So I spent the afternoon downing Jello shots and relaxing on the beach. I fell asleep for a bit and somehow woke up without a sun burn. It must be my lucky day but now I am kicking myself for not buying a lottery ticket.
Next it was off to Cactus Club for an extremely over priced dinner. It was good but not enough food to fill the belly of a big boy like me. After dinner I went to the theatre to watch Transformers Dark Of The Moon. I watched it in the new AVX 3D theatre which only added to the experience. The movie was great. The action was incredible and seeing it in 3D is a must. The only thing missing from the movie is Megan Fox. Micheal Bay you are an idiot for not keeping her. The new chick had a nice ass but Megan Fox she is not.
The day's not over yet. I think it's time for a McDonalds run for a McRib and a Coke. Oh and defiantly an ice cream cone to finish it all off.

Beach time
It is finally sunny out and it is starting to get warmer. I can't wait to go to Jericho Beach and just relax on the sand. I want to spend as many days as I can there this summer. Maybe if I am lucky enough I will catch a starfish or two. Summer time is here :)
