Every first Sunday of the month, general admission to the Oakland Museum is free, so we thought we would take this opportunity to check it out. We only viewed 1 of the 3 levels. We are saving the rest for when our visitors show up.

Sleepless in Redding
Got stuck in Redding, nothing to do… went to the Sundial Bridge at night. On the drive back I stopped to photograph some Pronghorn thingies. I wished I had my big cam. No compact camera I’ve ever had does well at that end of the optical range.
Battered
Had a call in Sonora today and while driving through Oakdale I spotted this sign. I don’t what kind of business they run, but I was intrigued. Perhaps next time.
Excess Turkey
What do I do with all that smoked turkey I made over the weekend? Turkey potpie what else.
Windy
Driving along the shore this afternoon, we saw a number of parasailers. I went back home and retrieved my camera. Lighting conditions were horrible for getting any kind of tight shot I had to shoot into the sun.
Food Styling
Sandy’s co-worker needed an international recipe & photo for her son’s school project. Sandy decided on Adobo that’s been in the frig for almost a week. I know the color is a bit off and the highlights on the rice are gone, but it’ll get the job done.
Rain
That means it’s a perfect day for…Pho!
Mid Term
I was away on Tuesday. When I arrived home I noticed Judy was a bit excited I think she voted for the Green party. Ha, they’ll never win.
Livermore Wildlife
Today I had a call in Livermore, out by Wente Vineyards. I decided to take my cam as I always see something out in the countryside.
Tuesday
Had 105K miles on Maxi so I turned her in today. I got Alli in exchange, 2011 Nissan Altima. Later I met Arlene for dinner at Kingfish. The Sea Bass was excellent. I now know the secret of Arlene’s diet. She orders the Beignets for desert and makes me eat 5 outta the 6.
