Jerry's Visit

Somehow managed stay awake enough on Sunday to keep a rendezvous with a former boss who was in Vancouver for a medical conference.

Hadn't seen Jerry since we worked together at the Ottawa Civic Hospital (he's a diabetes researcher - I ran the office). Even so, we seemed to pick up the conversation where we had left off, as if only a few months time had passed rather than 20+ years!

Enjoyed a stroll 'round the rhodo gardens at Stanley Park - a pleasant way to work off an excellent lunch at Kingyo Izakaya (http://www.kingyo-izakaya.ca/).
