Just before Spokane, along Highway 2, there's a kiosk with Spokane Area bicycle map. It greets cyclists coming into the city. One Spokane motel was less welcoming to non drivers, see blog entry, but there are plenty more motels closer to downtown where I wanted to be anyway.
If you like it, go see the 1:1 Lego version, you might like that, too!
I drew this refined version of my character Steelneck on my recent vacation. This sketch shows every brick combination required to build the figure, though I made some more improvements for balance and stability once I begun putting this guy together. Steelneck, by the way, is tied into a spin-off of my Ninja theme in which a possible distopian future of the Ninja's realm is explored. He is the last Ninja on earth, facing off against an unexpected enemy.

A map on the wall at the Halifax Campus of the Nova Scotia Community College on Bell Road. The building is now being dismantled and I have the map as a souvenir.
The map is actually an older version of the building and was a few years out of date.
A couple of backgrounds for the Galaxy Nexus (Android 4.0). Apparently they need to be 960x853 JPEGs.

Photos from our road trip down the South Island of New Zealand in January.
After such a beautiful day yesterday today is overcast and mild and by the afternoon the rain came down. January 26, 2015 New Zealand.
Queenstown (Māori: Tahuna) is a resort town in Otago in the south-west of New Zealand's South Island.
It is built around an inlet called Queenstown Bay on Lake Wakatipu, a long thin Z-shaped lake formed by glacial processes, and has spectacular views of nearby mountains such as The Remarkables, Cecil Peak, Walter Peak and just above the town; Ben Lomond and Queenstown Hill.
The area was known to Māori before Europeans arrived. The first European to see Lake Wakatipu was Nathanael Chalmers who was guided by Reko, the chief of the Tuturau, over the Waimea Plains and up the Mataura River in September 1853. Evidence of stake nets, baskets for catching eels, spears and ashes indicated the Glenorchy area was visited by Māori. It is likely Ngāi Tahu Māori visited Queenstown en route to collect Pounamu (greenstone), although no evidence of permanent settlement is known.
There are various apocryphal accounts of how the town was named, the most popular suggesting that a local gold digger exclaimed that the town was "fit for Queen Victoria". Many Queenstown streets bear names from the gold mining era (such as Camp Street) and some historic buildings remain. William's Cottage, the Lake Lodge of Ophir, Queenstown Police Station, and St Peter's Anglican Church lie close together in a designated historic precinct.
A resort town, Queenstown boasted 220 adventure tourism activities in 2012. Skiing and snowboarding, jet boating, whitewater rafting, bungy jumping, mountain biking, skateboarding, tramping, paragliding, sky diving and fly fishing are all popular.

Another slope map.
Red - staircases
Green - walking and bicycle paths
Gray - alleys and freeways. Freeways are often off grade, which renders the elevation profile invalid. Alleys are often ungraded.
Black - all other roads.
Note: though the map is generally true, there are lots of artifacts.

I'm quite wary of putting my actual travels in actual space online anywhere for safety reasons, so I did a kind of emotional map of today. Today was rough. See this blog post for explanation of the image: blogs.ubc.ca/chendricks/2016/07/15/summer-tears-hope/
