Farnham: Travel day

Sorry Kelly, but when there is a guy down the road that lets you run in the rain, has evenly matched cars, explains that ” this is rubbing racing, you’re allowed to put the guy into the tires buy hitting him sideways, just please no rear-ending” you have no chance at winning our business back.

See you Oct 1.

We entered the Radium Show and Shine parade by accident, these were just a few of the people that cheered for us.

We won best in show: 15 passanger van with a semi enclosed roof rack.

Why is Patrick not doing anything? Because he was sick all morning. Nothing keeps that kid down, he was back at it after a brief nap.

R.I.P Cornelius 2008 – 2009

Kamloops, July 30, 2009

After a long and valiant fight with water damage it is with much sadness that I have to announce the passing of the star of this blog, Cornelius. He was 11 months old.

He was a wonderful travel partner, who was always keen to go where most cameras knew they should not. Cornelius was aware of the risks, and was always the first to charge out of the gate into unknown territories. He has been busy over the last month traveling to Mt. Hood, Paris, then to his final destination on the Thompson River in Kamloops BC. He spent his last hours where he loved to be, at the top of a hill sprint capturing images of athletes puking their guts out.

Cornelius will be fondly missed by his long time friend Sean Frith as well as the countless ski racers whose souls he stole.

My favourite thing is to go where I’ve never been.” – Cornelius, Baja Mexico Sept 08.

In lieu of flowers please send letters of support to the Canon Canada Warranty Dept.

Medical emergency, blog goes on hiatus

Cornelius “canon g9” Frith was involved in a potentially fatal dragon boating accident earlier today. Witnesses say he was found face down in the bail water of the dragon boat at approximately 3:15. Although he had taken the precautionary measures of wearing a protective cover the depth of the water has casued potentially irreperable damage. Cornelius is currently in an induced coma undergoing dehydration therapy, our thoughts and prayers are with him.
