Photos From California Highway 99 Modesto, CA A few miles south of Ripon we came into Modesto, the first of the prospective towns my friends from Arkansas considered moving to. I always say that you can tell a lot about a place by the motorcycles in it, so a stop at the Harley-Davidson dealership made sense. For those of you that feel I am not giving an accurate portrayal of Modesto or any of the other towns in this CA Hwy 99 series, these photos are only meant to give a first impression of these places, from an unbiased perspective. …

California Highway 99 – Ripon

Photos From California Highway 99 Ripon, CA I have a couple friends that are moving to Central California from Arkansas in a couple of weeks. They have never visited any of the towns they are considering moving to. Since Tanya and I happened to be passing through the area, we decided that we would do a quick pictorial of each of the possible locations they provided to me. Since we spent Saturday evening in Ripon, we decided to start the pictorial there. It just so happens that my great-grandmother on my father\’s side was a Ripon, and since I had …

A Day In Yosemite

Tanya and I decided to visit Yosemite National Park today. It really has some amazing views. All those photographs you thought were enhanced, probably were not. The beauty of this place is pretty much dripping from everything. My photo of the day for day 289 is of Tanya and me with one of the amazing views to be found at Yosemite.

Yosemite National Park Photos From the High Sierra After spending the day in Sequoia National Park we drove to Oakhurst to spend the evening. It was a really nice place to wake up to. I took Buddy out for his morning walk, then after bringing him back to the room, I went for another walk with my camera. After a small breakfast we headed up Highway 41 to Yosemite. I can not believe I had never been before. The one thing I noticed was that the views looked almost fake because they were so beautiful. It was like a pull …

Big Tree Day

Tanya and I did not have anything to do last night. I told her I had no objection to just jumping in the car and taking off. She suggested that what I was really saying is that I wanted to go for a ride. Since she was game, I asked Buddy if he wanted to go. He made it pretty clear he was up for it. My photo of the day for day 288 if on Tanya and I in front of a huge tree in Sequoia National Park.

Photos from Sequoia and Kings Canyon Southern Sierra Nevada National Parks I do not really have a lot to say. Tanya was in town and there was nothing on TV. I asked Buddy if he wanted to go for a ride and he jumped in the car and waited for two hours, so we went for a drive. We ended up at Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. It was a lot different there today than when I went to Sequoia last May. Zero snow and the rivers were way down. I suppose that is only natural and next May …

Full Service Hospital

daily, geek good girl, photo, picture of the day, Project 365, Tanya, Torrance Memorial Hospital / 1 minute of reading

When I was a lad, the running joke about hospitals was their food, and the quality or lack thereof. I remember visiting my dad or mom in the hospital 30-some years ago and they were serving decent food. For some reason, I seem to recall the person I was visiting being served lobster or something you would not really expect to get at a hospital. Today, I had to go in and get an MRI done. I was quite surprised to discover that my local hospital is now offering escort services. My photo of the day for day 287 is …

First stop, Benihana

I guess in some ways I have been pretty lucky. One of those ways is that I have a really cool girlfriend, and even though we live 2,000 miles apart, we get to see each other pretty frequently. Today, Tanya came back to SoCal to visit with me for a while. The big question I seem to be getting hit with has been, so what are you guys doing this time? The answer, I have no idea. My photo of the day for day 286 is of Tanya and I standing outside the local Benihana restaurant. Tanya has become familiar …

What a Difference a Pill Makes

daily, Dr Kalata, photo, picture of the day, Project 365 / 1 minute of reading

It feels so good not to hurt. I can only imagine how much more pleasant my trip to Europe would have been if the idiot GP, Dr. Kalata, had spent more than two minutes with me and prescribed the proper medicines instead of the crappy pain pills she pushed off on me. I would have been pain free by the time I hit Chicago if she had a clue as to what she was doing. My photo of the day for day 285 is of my little friend, Teddy standing guard over the remaining tablets from my six day prescription. …

Gawking

Buddy, daily, photo, picture of the day, Project 365, walking / 1 minute of reading

We humans, at an early age, are [usually] taught that it is not polite to stare. Unfortunately, this was a lesson that I seemed unable to convey to Buddy. If he was a human he would probably be considered fairly rude. I think he just can not help it. My picture of the day for day 284 is of Buddy, with his eye on a cute French poodle. He went up and introduced himself, but apparently she did not care for mutts.
