Brian Hampson - Life and Other Things

Not much to say about me…

 I live in Burnaby BC, and enjoy life with my wife (Mrs DragonSpeed).  I have been in Vancouver since 1990 when I made the cross country trek from Ottawa ON.   We don’t have any kids, and we seem to be fresh out of pets, as they have aged out and the Mrs isn’t a big “pet fan )

I practice Judo for excercise and have been with the Burnaby Judo Club since 1997.  I am presently ranked as Shodan.  I am a Scout leader with the 40th Marpole Scouts (been doing that for over 15 years now).  I enjoy getting out and hiking, camping and fishing.  Being outdoors has given me a great opportunity for some fun photography and I have been taking a tonne of pictures since I got my DSLR back a few years back. Recent camera acquisition has been the Canon 40D (I’m absolutely loving this camera) and a 100mm macro lens.

I started blogging about 4 years ago.  Recently my last free blog provider changed formats and I lost all my blog entries for the past two years.  That’s why I moved over here to WordPress.com  I also have a photo blog at http://www.fotothing.com/dragonspeed and a series of photo galleries running on some C# code that I whipped up:  http://www.slacker.ca/brian/webpics/showpix.aspx

 That’s all folks
