09-22-2009 On some days it pays to take a nice long walk. The other day was one of those days. I always love to see a great sky overhead, it makes everything else look much more interesting. Take these two palm trees...pretty boring without that amazing cloud pattern above... - + -

Another fair day in paradise
08-30-2009 I spent the afternoon at the California State Fair the other day - it has been several years since I've attended the state fair. It seemed a lot cleaner than I remembered it in the past. It was a great day to be there, and since it was a weekday it was a little … Continue reading Another fair day in paradise

If I ever get a tattoo…
08-27-2009 ...this would be it. Since I look like this on most days, it would only make sense. Some people have make up tattoo'd on their faces; I can just have a facsimile of my bicycle chain grease put on my leg. It does look like it's time to clean my chain. - + -
Call my name
08-26-2009 Some beers just call to me. In this case, Corona was very clearly calling, "Ron, Ron, Ron!" I could hear it from miles away. - + -
Tri-tip Tuesday
08-11-2009 Looks like I picked the wrong week to give up meat. A new sandwich place, The Sandwich Spot, opened up this month; it is owned and operated by a neighborhood family. It's nice to see new small businesses pop up in spite of the grim economic outlook. They have designated Tuesdays as "Tri-Tip Tuesdays". … Continue reading Tri-tip Tuesday
Looking Up
08-06-2009 I usually carry a camera with me whenever I leave the house. I mean, if a UFO landed in front of you and aliens walked out, what's the one thing you'd wish you had with you? Sometimes I don't feel like I see anything worth capturing - and I realize it is more about my … Continue reading Looking Up
Independence Day – 2009
July 3, 2009 Happy 4th of July! After the Sacramento Rivercats game ended on Friday night, they had a pretty nice fireworks display at Raley Field. This was taken from across the Sacramento River along the promenade. I included one of the towers of the Tower Bridge because I wanted a stationary and recognizable object … Continue reading Independence Day – 2009
And they’re off!

A Golden Day
03-07-2009 I spent part of the day at the Homeward Bound Golden Retriever Rescue sanctuary in Elverta today. Homeward Bound is a non-profit, all-volunteer operation run by Jody and Mike Jones. They rescue Golden Retriever dogs from all over the state, and have over 40 dogs in the sanctuary. In 2008, they rescued 810 dogs! … Continue reading A Golden Day
