Good news! There’s a new light-up Vancouver sign in downtown Vancouver
Bad news, it’s so close to the sidewalk you need to use 0.5 and also almost back up into traffic on Georgia to get a photo with all the letters in it 😅

The Arts Club's production of Little Women is officially my favourite adaptation (stage or screen) ever. Just saw it on Granville Island. Playwright Lauren M. Gunderson.
And yes I've read the book many times, even been to Alcott's grave in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, Concord, MA so I mean what I say 😅
