Burd Squatters

A pair of stupid burds decided to construct a 3 bedroom condo right outside our front door directly atop our porch light, without permits. The result is alot of burd crap! I started to build a profile. I believe they are sparrows. The male is middle-aged, plain looking. Most likely a victim of a crime …

Pelican

Every time I drive to and from Fed Ex (about once a week) I see at least one pelican in this estuary by the Oakland airport. So today I finally brought my camera and shot a few pictures. What I didn’t expect was for them to be feeding. I ended up shooting 123 photos. Needless …

BAT Sandwich

I’m reduced to eating bats now. Actually for whatever reason we decided to have sandwiches for dinner so I decided to make a Bacon, Arugula & Tomato sandwich.

Phò Weather

Whenever the days are cloudy and cold we look at each other and simultaneously say,”It’s Phò weather.” Sandy orders something different with each visit, me I order the same thing over and over. A small #10 (tai nam sach) with chicken wings.

Chop Bar

I can’t remember the last time we got together with Jim, Kelly, Steve & Diane. So it was with great anticipation that we met at the Chop Bar downstairs from their lofts. The food was excellent and the company even better.

Our Vacation 2010

In September we plan to go to Italy and it’s all we talk about. The tickets have been purchased via my AMEX miles, WooHoo. We’ll stay in a villa with 12 other family & friends somewhere in the Tuscany area. I don’t even know exactly where…I don’t care. I’m just happy were going. I’ve been …

Tomatoes

While I don’t have my Father’s green thumb, I wanted to try to grow some tomatoes. I’m tired of eating those gross grocery store tomatoes. Yes I fell for the upside down growing thingie.

My Father

Last weekend, we flew to LA to see my ailing father. He is down to 111 lbs and so I decided not to photograph him. We just hung out while he slept most of the day. Before we left, Sandy and I ventured into the backyard for the customary visit with my father’s orchids. The …
