I am declaring California\’s drought as being officially over. There is no way that we can still be short of water. I found it amusing when I was driving up I-5 the other day, through the San Joaquin Valley. There were several signs protesting the \”Congress Caused Dust Bowl.\” During the summer, they made sense. The other day they were surrounded by lush, green fields and ponds. Not very dusty. My photo of the day for day 80 of Project365 is my reflection in a wannabe pond.
I have to admit, if it were not for Facebook, I doubt I would have realized that today was the first day of Spring. If you will recall, at the beginning of March I mentioned how March usually comes in like a lion and ends like a lamb. Well, I think things got twisted around, because there is nothing lamb-like about the end of this month. My photo of the day for day 79 of Project365 shows what a dark and rainy morning we had for the first day of Spring 2011.
I was looking at this photo and considered deleting it. Then I looked a little closer and decided that it really was pretty appropriate for the day. Kind of gloomy out. I guess all the radiation in the air is messing with our weather. It is always something. Day 78 of Project365.
I am not sure about this daylight savings time thing. Let there be no question, I love DST, but for some reason ever since it started I have been waking up at 7:00 at the latest. I was a 8:00 guy before the time change. Something does not add up. It makes days like yesterday seem very long. Day 77 of Project365.
I was thinking back, and I am sad to say that I am not sure that I have ever spent St. Patrick\’s Day in San Francisco. I suppose I must have since I was born there, but I sure do not recall ever going there when I was an adult. The funny thing is, I did not even have a Guinness today, although I did have a couple last night. Oh well, guess I am growing up. My photo of the day for Project365 on St. Patrick\’s Day.
I drove up to San Francisco to participate in a protest put on by the Free Speech Coalition. Since my first protest was done in San Francisco around 1968, it kind of made sense that I would end up here for one of the last I will likely participate in. My photo of the day for day 75 of Project365 was taken in my room at the Beresford Hotel on Sutter. The location is good, but their Internet sucks, if that is important to you.
While I may not have gotten stabbed, like Julius Caesar, the Ides of March were not very kind to me. Had taxes to pay, returns to get filed, and Tanya went home. Pretty much a trifecta. I had to go drown my sorrows in Gu Gu Sushi. My picture of the day for day 74 of Project365 is of Tanya and I as we prepared to leave for the airport.
It is the 73rd day of Project365 2011 and the 14th day of March, or 3.14. Pi. Get it? I never heard of today being called Pi Day before, so I guess Facebook taught me something. My photo of the day is of me getting my daily radiation fix.
I think I was doing pretty good about keeping this years Project365 current, but I got sidetracked. My girlfriend, Tanya, came into town; then we had to do all our tax stuff and we had to make plans for the year. As a result, I got delayed and now I am going to play catch-up again. Day 67 was a warm and sunny morning. Tanya is going to love the weather when she gets here tonight. I also discovered that the Charger makes a pretty nice canvas. Wednesday is beautiful. We open all the doors today as it is warmer …
It is Monday, the 7th day of March and the 66th day of Project365 2011. There is nothing particularly special about today, other than it is the day before Tanya gets here. Oh, and I need to make sure I have all my tax paperwork together. My photo of the day shows a window can make a decent canvas.
