Assignment #1: best or worst hotel experience in Vancouver

What did our winner of Alphanaut Assignment #1 win? Apart from adoration, fame and prestige among our elite community?

The winner and I arrived at an agreement. I had something he wanted. Something he'd had before and needed to have again.

Tomatoes. High end tomatoes from the locally famous tomato man, Milon, who supplies all the local high-end restaurants, sees a 40-person lineup at the farmer's markets and rations his beauties one basket per household.

Specifically, Craig Riggs won cascade and sungold tomatoes. Certainly not tomatoes for throwing.

The acceptance speech proved short and dignified. The man wanted to be alone with his tomatoes. And who can blame him? Congratulations, Craig (and Kiley)!
