It's Tuesday so I did my regular loop around town from Willows through Saxe Point then over to Broadmead then down to Rockland then back up to Camosun, and finally wrapping the morning up at Sayward Hill. (I still think Mike K. could have organized these walking routes a bit better, seeing as how I'm hauling about a hundred pounds of camera gear, promotional flyers, and Mike K.'s laundry, but I'll never give him the satisfaction of hearing a complaint out of me.)
A little birdie told me this Sparrow development is looking pretty good. If any VV members should happen to move into this building, I sure hope you have the decency to invite us all over for gourmet scones and coffee so we can share your enjoyment of that back view.

It reminds me of Lyra at Christmas Hill, except it looks completely different and it's just one building and it's on the other side of town.
Fun fact: if you go up to Summit Park you can see Lyra at Christmas Hill in the distance. So there's also that.
The burnt out portapotties are quite a sight on the Cook st side of this building!
We need better facilities for people to cook meth in.
