Tim invited us all over for a small dinner party. Not knowing him well I assumed it would be a small meal and we'd be there for a short time. I was wrong. Tim went all out, making wonderful food, and we were at his house for quite some (enjoyable) time. Tim has a real cool style, this is his dining room.
Amboseli, Kenya
This was our first sighting of the late Tim, when we visited Amboseli last November. Such a shame that we won't be able to see him again, but let's hope that Craig can take over his enduring appeal.
My sincere thanks to all who take the time to comment or add my images to their Favourites.

The sudden cut of loss and realization is painfully sharp.
Acceptance and understanding is elusive; the suffering deeper still.
Late Sunday afternoon I went to Seymour Mountain. On each anniversary of my accident, I try to visit and go for a walk. After just missing sunset at the parking lot I took my headlamp and camera gear for a hike to Dog Mountain. Not much snow but plenty of quiet time to revisit my fall, 7 years ago now.

Simon and I went for a snowshoe hike around the east side of Seymour and went up Runner Peak. During the traverse back, about 1/2 hour from the ski runs, I fell. A long way. 600 feet below I ended up at Theta Lake. My backpack & coat ripped from my body, never to be found again. One boot and snowshoe gone. Broken shoulder, missing teeth and a neck fracture. Blood. Disorientated and cold. Though truth be told, I was very lucky to be in such good condition.
Nearly impossible to hike down but Simon makes it halfway regardless. Relieved to hear me alive, he manages to call for help. Somehow within 40 minutes and moments before dark sets in, a helicopter comes in and drops off 2 men. I clearly remember their headlamps coming towards me. I'm pretty sure I was mumbling and yelling, wondering why the helicopter had gone away. One of them told me to shut up. I had just met Tim Jones.
It took about an hour to reach the viewpoint at the end of the trail. Most of the fog below had disappeared so I sat down and decided to wait for a bit. Maybe the colder night air would bring the low cloud cover back. Besides, just sitting there gave me a chance to look up at the stars and check things out in my head.

Tim & Gord had wrapped me up within a heated blanket. They kept me alive. I think Tim's outer layer was a garbage bag with arm holes cut in it. How they had kept warm overnight I have no idea. I didn't know it at the time but Tim has been involved in over 1,500 rescues during his time with NSR since 1987. I couldn't have been in better hands.
SAR personnel had mobilized and were sent in to assist. The first group of 5 made it in before the worsening weather and terrible snow conditions forced everyone else to turn back for their own safety. Thank you Jeff, Bruce, Doug, John & Rollie. We were badly in need of help. The snow continued to fall. At one point a loud rumble headed down towards us, stopping within throwing distance. Unable to see what had happened I asked what was that. Tim replied, "Mother Nature". That avalanche forced the group to move base camp. They dug a snow cave and put me inside. I spent the next 14 hours within the hole. There was no getting home today. They all suffered worse than me I'm sure.
After realizing that only a few lingering clouds would make their way back over the city, I took this photo and packed up. No one else was out here. I headed back just before 7pm. When I passed First Lake I was surprised to hear what sounded like people above. Seemed unusual to me. Later along the trail I bumped into 3 paramedics who were on their way to help with a cardiac arrest near Dinky Peak. I gave them a hand carrying some of their heavy gear. I thought about asking if Tim was up here, as I hadn't seen him in a while, but it seemed inappropriate as they were on an emergency call so it never came up. [Tim Jones is an advanced life-support paramedic and paramedic-in-charge for the B.C. Ambulance Service in North Vancouver] On the way, they were told via radio, that another group were bringing the subject down the mountain. So we returned to the parking lot, where I left them and all the other many rescue personnel.

There was talk of a insane 10+ hour rope rescue to lift me out of this bowl if the deep clouds continued to prevent an air rescue. But finally a small opening appeared in the afternoon, and a helicopter popped in. They basically tossed me in while it hovered just above the frozen lake. Inside the helicopter and on the way to the hospital, I was laying down on the legs of Curtis Jones, Tim's son.
I simply would not have survived had his father not risked his life to rescue me. Words cannot not express the gratitude my family continues to feel towards him. I don't recall ever hearing Tim or any of the others complaining, even though none of them could have been comfortable. These volunteers are heroes in my books.
After giving a Mexican hitchhiker a ride down the mountain I received a shocking text telling me who had died on Seymour that night. The facts all tumbled into place. Tears began to fall. And the local outdoor community was devastated. Tim Jones had passed away from a heart attack.
Tim had an amazing spirit and strength. Determined and passionate. He was a larger-than-life leader of North Shore Rescue. I know he will be missed deeply by his team, friends & co-workers.
My deepest condolences to his family. I can't imagine the grief you must be feeling right now.

So Flickr friends may or may not remember a certain creamery that Tom and I frequented during our time in the US. Well, we were visitng Tom's dad for Canada Day and stopped in to Tim Horton's only to discover that Coldstone Creamery had struck a deal with Tim Horton's. Apparently Tim Horton's will now be joined with Coldstone and it's set to span across all of Canada. How cool is that?

This is Tim, a mechanical ostrich that jumps. He's a proud member of my domestic fauna.
Éste es Timoteo, un avestruz mecánico que funciona a cuerda y da saltitos. Es un honorable miembro de mi bestiario doméstico ;-)
It's my birthday today so here's a recent photo of Tim and me on a trip up the hospital for one of his check ups!
Today we're going out for lunch with Matt and Sophie but I don't know where yet! I love surprises!
Long weekend is good reason to go out and take some seascape shots or better to say to discover Turimetta on my own. However I met my good friend Tim who is a person who also loves seascape shooting (please visit his stream ) We met at the car park in pitch black so after I cried on his shoulder that I don't know Turimetta very well he decided to show me this place as best he knows.
Of course I left my wet shoes at home so having wet feet was nothing new for me but the weather was so good for "not" taking photos, no clouds and I forgot my cellophane but I will post few of them which are deserving your attention....
Here is Tim in action...

Tim, you make Flickr such a great community. Your dedication to art and to making the groups you administer the best they can be is inspiring. Thank you so much for all you do.
I tried creating an image like one of yours, but I'm afraid it's just a hot mess. It's a LOT harder than you make it seem...the sign of a great artist!
My apologies to my brother, Tom, who took this picture. The hot mess is all my own doing.

Tim's big catch. On the Ottawa River at the Rideau Locks in the shadow of the Parliament Buildings. Tim said that is is a Walleye. He released it back into the river after the photos were taken.
Good news - Tim's treatment has finished! We were shown his first and last PET scans and it was clear the huge area of lymphoma attached the his liver and spleen had reduced to a dot in the second one. He and the doctor mutually decided that as the extra treatment hasn't been proven to make any difference he won't bother. He will have another PET scan in a couple of months to make sure everything is still okay. Woo hoo!!!

My mate Tim said his parents were moving house. So I jumped to the oppotunity and took the pic.

He will be greatly missed. A musical giant and a supremely lovely man.
