I enjoyed the most beautiful weekend outdoors with my wife! I might have gotten a little too much sun (my face is currently paying the price), but it was so worth the adventure. ☀

I love getting out, trying new places, and supporting local businesses here in Kamloops! Today, I had the pleasure of trying Hi There - a locally owned and operated Korean dessert restaurant. We tried their "craffles" and wow, were they ever exquisite!

What I've been driving to work this past week! 🚗

I was recently gifted this gorgeous, 1964 Chevrolet Impala (with a 283 and 2 speed Powerglide transmission) from my mom & dad. My dad bought it from the original owner in 2004, after it unfortunately sat unused for 20 years. Overtime, he has tried to retain as many stock aspects as possible, while still updating the paint and many aspects of the drivetrain. The interior has been updated to bucket seats with a console shifter. The car had 109000 miles when it was purchased by my dad, and now has 112000 miles now (yes, miles).

It is a joy to cruise around while constantly turning heads. Truly a one-of-a kind experience!
