Month: August 2011

We walked around a bit after dinner and were drawn to Ocean Park by the kite flying going on. Here, Kat, Jeff and Doug do an album cover pose by all looking in different directions.

When we arrived at the house yesterday, this was sitting on the counter waiting for us.

I know I overpacked. It’s just that the last time the forecast call for a cool week, it turned out to be quite warm and I didn’t have sufficient warm-weather clothes with me. So this time, I’m well prepared.

I hate to return from vacation and have a messy desk, so I always clean mine before I go. This time I even cleaned out the junk drawer–that was an adventure.

This is a ring-billed gull. They are smaller than your more familiar herring gull, but have just as much attitude.

Got my haircut tonight and then decided to grab some dinner at the famous Johnny’s Luncheonette. It was very delicious, but hellooo! look at my parking space!!!!

ladies, you’ll recognize this. guys, here’s what all the fuss is about.

you can’t quite trust a sky like this. it looks like things are clearing but you can never be sure. In fact, as I type this, the rain has started again.

it’s been a while since a posted a picture of unfamiliar produce from Russo’s market. This large tuber is a name (NYAH-may) root. It’s  just a really big yam.
