		<title>Good moon rising in South Cariboo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night I enjoyed the sight of the moon rising over the lake. In my tent, I read a book by lantern (battery powered) while the coyotes and loons howled and hooted outside. This morning I watched squirrels running and dragonflies flitting - and now I've lined up wireless access at my campsite!

		<title>Poned &#8211; &#8220;pwned&#8221; &#8211; by the preteens</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Embracing the pre-teen boy experience has been pretty hilarious, if you look at them the right way. Don't see the "obnoxious" aspect. Try "mischievious" and "playful" and "full of energy." Think of wild kingdom and picture the younger, smaller, way more hyper version of the larger animal. Pre-teen chimpanzees or tigers.]]></description>

		<title>Getting our car back: a story in pictures</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Other people did it too. It seemed okay. Maybe the parking bylaw wasn't really enforced, and no one really minded. Until yesterday.]]></description>

		<title>Checking out Nanaimo with advice from Twitter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What&#8217;s a good cafe in Nanaimo? I put this question out on Twitter yesterday and was grateful for the suggestions I received. Following a tip from @boutiquemac and @HiredGuns &#8211; we visited Mon Petit Choux Bakery &#038; Cafe at 120 Commercial Street (at Wharf) in Nanaimo. And it was great. Tasty drinks, good food, Bob Marley playing on the stereo, and a comfortable, open space with big windows and a nice view. For some reason, on a whim, I decided to try a London Fog for the first time. I ordered a hot London Fog for myself and an iced one for my son. We also split an order of French toast and it was a nice touch that the waitress asked the kitchen staff to put it on two plates for us. It was, as the waitress described it, like a bread pudding style, rich and tasty. We have one more day, and plan to check out Bocca on Fitzwilliam or Serious Coffee on Commerical, suggested by @rcthink &#8211; and @amandabrittain has me curious about Modern Cafe near the convention centre. &#8220;Best mac and cheese ever!&#8221; We saw this boutiquemac sign right beside Mon Petit Choux, so I stopped [...]]]></description>
