This is where I had planned to be today
Photo by Carol Browne as seen on nowpublic.comToday was going to be an errand day, returning cds & books to the library, mailing things, picking up polishing wheels, supplies, paying for a table at a fair, etc.
A couple minutes before I was about to head out the door I heard about an explosion in downtown Vancouver's core right were I was going to be. Thankfully no one is reported hurt. A bit of smoke, but also a power outage effecting 4,500 businesses. Awful!
So... errands tommorrow? Though I have to admit a small part of me wishes I were posting my own photos of billowing smoke and police. Just my sense of drama.

I actually didn't even hear about the explosion until today, just wondered why our internet connection was down for a couple of hours yesterday.
I was actually surprised to see that a lot the area down here is still out today as well though.
