Ladies, I've always heard the perfect man is tall, dark and handsome. We'll have no fear, he does exist. I found this at my mother's and actually laughed out loud. I knew I got my sense of twisted humour from her somewhere.

"I love that this morning's sunrise does not define itself by last night's sunset." -Steve Maraboli What's the story morning glory? The final sunrise in Montréal before heading off to Toronto. I hope to return soon #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #workhardplayhard #hustle #quotes #blessed #montreal #sunrise (at Le Centre Sheraton Montreal)
"In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields." -John McCrae #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #remember #thankful #humble #legion #rememberanceday #veteransday #armisticeday #troops (at Prince's Island Park)

Winery of the day #3 Tantalus Vineyard. Sobriety is a losing battle. This is what a vineyard looks like all to yourself on a private patio...if only for a moment. It makes me wish I could upload a 270 degree panoramic. My second glass of 2013 Riesling Special Reserve, something pretentious. It's awesome btw. #entrepreneur #finance #business #vacation #wine #winetasting #winery #okanagan (at Tantalus Vineyards)
"I have loved the stars too fondly, to be fearful of the night." -Sarah Williams Maybe walking around Montreal for hours, as night turns to morning, makes you brain play tricks on you. But on my way back to the hotel I came across this unknown building right out of Gotham city. Two facts remain undoubted. 1) Old Montreal is exquisite 2) My inner nerd loves Batman I can almost hear Harvey Dent say, "The night is darkest just before the dawn. And I promise you, the dawn is coming." As I stare at this structure before cutting over some tracks back to my hotel I smile to myself over the simple moments in life that make you life worth living. (at Montreal, Quebec)
I believe Tolkien's words hold just as true today, and relate to far more than just the fantasy world they were originally meant for.
