Our first time in this house was a large wallpaper job, yellow wallpaper with an old world theme. We got to know the single lady who lived here and discovered that she was the 'right hand man' (personal assistant) to the fellow who was the brains and inspiration behind the 2010 Winter Olympics. She worked all hours of the day contacting Olympic representatives from around the world, all in different time zones. She was on a first name basis with all the highest ranking politicians in our province. She was interesting and had an interesting house and we worked for her a few times in the years prior to the Olympics. When her boss passed away on the day that the Olympic Flame began its journey to B.C. we never heard from her again. He had been dying for some time and she told us that she would be taking care of his wife when the time came. We had made plans to do some work in her front entry but she may not even live here anymore.
