As Rebecca put it to me this morning, she hasn’t missed a Vancouver Sun Raise A Reader Day in four years, and today was no exception. Taking my new Nikon D90 out for an inaugural spin into the real world, here’s a few photos of players we were able to run into today.

Raise A Reader Day is always a good time to run around downtown Vancouver to see as many Canucks players from past and present. Where else can you see the Canucks top liners then go another block to run into greats like Stan Smyl or Orland Kurtenbach? But it’s also a great cause to help enable those who are struggling with literacy because without the power to read, who else is going to read these blog posts that I write, eh?

Until next year…
