i headed home from canada this weekend. the trip went great, however i’d be lying if i said i’ll miss the cold canadian weather. i’m looking forward to driving on roads that aren’t icy and not having my hands hurt because i forgot to put on my gloves.

we have had a decent amount of tim hortons while up here in the great white north. it’s in essence the canadian version of dunkin’ donuts. i’ve enjoyed it, although as you can see from the photo, the snow has been quite crazy.

we had an austin-healey sprite for a prop car on a recent commercial and boy was it beautiful! the headlights gave it a cartoon face that totally reminded me of speed buggy. of course i hopped in for a photo, although my legs barely fit under the steering wheel. it made my mini cooper seem gigantic.
