For Adam's 16th birthday in 2012, I took him on a bus tour to New York City. Check out the web album from that trip:

Renovation 2010
We renovated our house in the summer and fall of 2010 to add a master bedroom and bathroom over an existing garage. This addition has been fantastic for our family.
We created a Blurb book all about the renovation process we went through, and it can be found at this link:

Scotland and England 2010
Near the end of the massive home renovation project, Wendy and I took a trip to Sheffield England for a work conference of mine (a bone cancer meeting). We stopped in Glasgow and Edinburgh on the way to Sheffield, then ended the trip in London before flying back to Toronto.
We made a Blurb book of this trip, and it can be previewed at this link:

Website history
Below is a condensed version of what has happened at this site since it
was first posted in June 1999 (with the most recent changes first):
- December 12, 2013 Website moved to the new Blogger platform – redirects from the old site point to the new location. Photos uploaded only to Google, so they are easier to view and manage.
- July 11, 2012. OK, I've finally
updated some of the pictures...
- June 13, 2010. OK, I've finally
updated things after my Ph.D.
- May 15, 2009 - The website is
still in "coasting mode". When I am done my Ph.D., I'll try to
update everything on the site.
- September 13,
2007 - The website has been in "coasting mode" for a while
during the time that I have been working on my Ph.D. Wendy is also back to
school, so there has not been much time to do my website hobby. Will try
to add a few new items as they happen.
- March 19, 2004 - Completely
redesigned the look of the site and transferred it to our new cable
internet provider's server (Cogeco). Old (iSTAR) site pages were replaced
by metatag links to the new location; removed some of the pages and
revised the text on almost all others.
- September 7,
2001 -
major overhaul of the site - removed frames and changed
the graphic appearance
- December 6,
2000 -
fixed some of the navigation problems experienced by Internet Explorer (it
was my inexperience with Frames that caused it...)
- December 4,
2000 -
the site was completely revised with all the content
updated ; our first attempt at frames was made (let us
know what you think...) and hopefully this will make the site easier to
use; All new family photos added, and an update was made to the Family
tree to include Parker, and Adam now has his own page.
- August 30, 2000 - Parker has
arrived safely!
- July 12, 2000 - We finally have a
picture of Wendy on this site!
- Mar. 29, 2000 - We are
pregnant!! See our Baby page and send us your baby name
suggestions.
- Jan. 18, 2000 - Corrected a number
of bugs on the pages; added the navigation buttons to the top of most of
the pages; split the Stained Glass page into two, since some browsers were
not able to download all of the images properly.
- Aug.16, 1999 - First major
update of the site - I got a new computer - what can I say! Added
are: a new colour scheme (easier to see?), better navigation controls (I
made some buttons...), a Recipe page, my Camera Collection, tons of Family
Tree information, and a number of new pictures (including a new stained
glass project)! Gone are those animated 'gifs' - especially that pulsing
red line that originally reminded me of the Cylons from
Battlestar Galactica (oops, I guess that one shows my age...).
- June 23, 1999 - first
attempt at posting a website to the 'net'. Lots of 'under
construction' stuff. Sorry!
