  • Solstice

    I biked down to the Fremont Summer Solstice parade this afternoon. I was one of the dull full clothed gawkers on the sidelines. Check out the expression of this boat-yard worker on-break checking out naked bikers. {gallery [Solstice] } You think he’ll be riding next year? And didja notice the wandering gypsy in a mobile…

  • Passport

    I sent my passport off for renewal today. I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since I went to England for the first time. That was right after high school. I wonder if anybody went back to their 10 year reunion at Capital High?

  • Costco

    I went in to Costco intending to only buy a $35 car battery, and walked out with $250 worth of shrink wrapped crap. How do they do it? Maybe it’s the tugboat sized shopping carts they make you push around. Nature abhors a vacuum, and a Costco shopper hates an empty shopping cart.

  • Crime Website

    Here is a very well done, intuitive, albeit spooky, website of crime information for Chicago. I don’t really care about crime in Chicago, but I found my self fascinated by the information, clicking around for a few minutes.

  • The Big Vic

It’s a nice little town, even if the bilgewater gets dumped into the strait. Tonight it’s Greek food at…

  • Garage Sale + Juniper

    Last weekend I went to Loren’s garage sale. { gallery [garage_sale] } And then helped Carol with her gigantic Juniper plant. { gallery [juniper] }

  • Zip Ties

    I used zip ties to attach my bend-o-vines to the cage. { gallery [zip_ties] }

  • Family Tree

    Bertie’s father is an Ambilobe (below left) and his mother is a Sambava. Peg Leg (below right) is his uncle on his mother’s side. { gallery [ancestors] } I have seen bertie flash oranges slightly between the red and yellow orange of his parents. Usually, he is a blue teal. { gallery [bertie_orange] }

  • Red Mill Trip

    My co-workers and I took a trip to ye’ ol Red Mille. { gallery [red_mill] } Check out the barge-o-bacon! The girl making change was kind enough to let me snap her picture too.
