bradm Posted June 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 mooose, their burger menu does indeed list veggie burgers as a patty option; another would be portobello mushroom cap. (Their menu also lists smoked meat poutine...)CJ, are you driving in? I'm not sure about parking in Westboro, but you'd be welcome to leave your vehicle at my place. I live right beside the Lincoln Fields OC Transpo station, which is two stops away from Westboro; you could drop the wheels off, and we could wend our way pretty easily. (Timing-wise, I'd want to be underway by 11am or so.)Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradm Posted June 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 I just got off the phone with Calamity Jane, and she's unsure at this point (largely due to precocious kids). The weather for tomorrow looks better: partly cloudy, 17C, 10% chance of rain.Anybody in for tomorrow? I think I'd be better off napping out this afternoon and heading out tomorrow afternoon.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradm Posted June 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 Hmmm...much less windy this morning, just above 11C, overcast but not raining. I'm thinking of heading out the door soon (11:00am - 11:30am), first stop either coffee or The Works (or maybe Trio). Anybody else?Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AD Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 That was a fun evening, Jim was pretty loose and talkative but the show was good. Nice guest appearance from Kathleen Edwards on violin. Yesterday some people pointed out members of Arcade Fire at Radiohead; Jeremy Gara (AF drummer) is a regular in Jim's band and was playing guitar and keys tonight.But that's not really news to anyone I hope.AD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
