elcome to my web site. Hi, I'm Chris Butler and live in the west-end of Ottawa, Canada - the nation's Capital in a place known as Kanata.

No end of cool stuff here. Among Chris' favourite things are: Model Railroading in HO, Sn3 and On3 scales and gauges with a special emphasis on 3' narrow gauge in O-scale in the Pacific Northwest during the 1880 - 1920 era. Photography in Digital and 35mm formats. Home computing, networking and the Internet. Classical music, jazz, modern and Classic Rock (such as Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Free, Tom Petty, Jimi Hendrix, Beatles etc). As well, recent Roger Waters and David Gilmour releases. Now that I'm single once again, I am into home cooking. Check out my cool recipes!
