I had an intruder this evening! I was so nervous I couldn’t get a good shot.
Danger keep your distance
And then there were 3…
Salt Lake City
Did an overnighter in SLC, ventured out in the evening and shot the famous LDS Salt Lake Temple with my G7, handheld 1/25th f3.2, ISO 1600. Really noisy eh.
Winding down the weekend
We had a very full weekend. Today Ate Anna and Stephen came over for lunch. We started off with a great green salad by Sandy. I grilled pork ribs, chicken, corn on the cob & asparagus. This was followed up with some homemade macapuno ice cream.
Shortly after our meal I had to run Tita Flor over to the Amtrak station at JLS to catch her train back to Sacramento.
Of course I forgot to photograph the food!
Happy Birthday Uncle Russell
Uncle Russell turned 60 today. We were invited to a surprise birthday party at the beautiful home of Sheldon & Debbie. There was way too much great tasting food.
Humm… 1947, Uncle wasn’t that before cars were invented?
All aboard for biscuits and gravy at the driving range
This morning we were honored by a visit from Tita Flor. We picked her up at the Jack London Square Amtrak station and she treated us to breakfast at our local Chuck Corica Golf Course. I couldn’t finish my biscuits and gravy, the portions were huge! Sandy had the waffles and Tita Flor had an omelette the size of Rhode Island.
After breakfast, I wandered the grounds and ran into Chef Taka from our favorite Japanese restaurant Angel Fish of Alameda. Uh… he’ll be closed Sunday through Wednesday for a much needed vacation, FYI.
Fridate
What a gorgeous day for a premeditated date. I hopped on the Harbor Bay Ferry and met Sandy in the city. We then strolled over to Sai’s for a tasty bowl of Phó.
San Francisco
It was a decent day as far as the weather goes, so on my way home I stopped off at Treasure Island to shoot a couple of Panoramas with my G7. The 1st photo is stitched together from 8 vertical images. The second is 7 horizontal images. For obvious reasons I can’t offer the full resolution images as they are approx 28MB.
Hopeful
Well it’s been 3 days now and we still have all 4 little ducklings. I’m hopeful that this is not just by chance, that the small family protected by an experienced mother is paying off. Not to mention the 6 lbs of scratch I’ve fed them.
Billboard doesn’t lie
According to Billboard, Jon’s new CD is now #8. Those 5 CDs I bought at the flea market must have paid off… funny they were in a Kenny Rogers case.
