Resurrection
Antioch, CaWhen I lived with John I had my father build me a closet because my room didn't come with one. When John got us evicted, my father suggested I save my old closet "because you never know when you might need one again." I begrudgingly kept it. Well it turns out the new place I'm moving into doesn't have a closet. So I dug this out of storage and now I'm eating crow.
Post #600 & Happy Birthday to John - his 41st.

Web Weaver
Click on Picture to see it better.
Clyde, CaI got stood up tonight by a friend. We were supposed to move his TV. While waiting for his return call I found this nice web and tried to photograph it. First I tried my flashlight and then I tried using my flash. I'm not happy with either. I think for it to really work I would need to back light the web with a flash below the frame of the camera.

Antioch, CAThe 13 year-old has an internship this week at a candy store. She dipped this apple in chocolate and used other cookies to make the mouse face.

Storm moving in
Antioch, CAWhen I got out of church it was sunny over my head and very dark north of me. So I went down by the river and took shots of the storm moving south.

gutter at night
Bencia, CA
I went out to dinner with some friends tonight. The more and more I take night shots the more and more I think I need to invest in a Gorrillapod.

new tub
Oakley, CAWe got our new none-working bathtub at work today. Technically we got it on Tuesday, but it was 1.5 inches too big to fit through the door so it sat out in the hall way until today.

therapy
Antioch, CAI have always found washing other people's dishes to be therapeutic. Washing my dishes is a chore but others is perfect therapy.

Inaguration Day
Antioch, CAI try to not be political on Photo a Day, but I was very happy to be an American today. To see the dreams of Martin Luther King fulfilled and to see our country come full circle from the atrocities of the 1800s - what an amazing day to be an American. I watched as much as I could at home before going to work. Once at work we were left to listening on the radio as the bandwidth for the County's computers were over ran. I came home tonight and listened to the speech one more time and was reminded of what a great country I live in. I loved how Obama reminded us that we are the same hard workers and innovators as we were before this economical crisis. We are the people that put a man on the moon. We are the people who helped two men start a computer company in their garage. We are the people that brought home the Power Soccer World Cup. This hasn't changed since the economic crisis. We've made it through tough times and we will do it again. Because we are Americans.

As icing on the cake, it was nice of MSNBC to show the white moving trucks packing up the last of Bush's crap. Good ridance.

dew drops
Oakley, CAI was trying to catch the dew off of the right corner of the sign but I think my lighting was blocked too much. But hey - at least it ain't a sunset picture right?

contrast in lawn lines
Antioch/Brentwood/Oakley CA
I like the swirls on the hill and how they contrast with the rows level with the camera.

pink trees
One of these days I'll remember to go take pictures during lunch or during the morning, but until then you will keep getting this crap.

snuggling zoe
Antioch, CAZoe was awfully cuddly tonight. She was all over me as Tom had me watch this TV show I've never seen before: 24. The show wasn't bad but Zoe was a little annoying. I was glad when the 16 year-old got home and Zoe went to annoy her.

English Bulldog
Oakley, CAOne of my clients brought in his new English Bulldog "puppy" today. It's name is Princess Fiona because just like an ogre, "this dog will only be pretty on the inside."
I put quotes over puppy because it already weighed 17 pounds. Not to complain but do you know how hard it is to hold a 17 pound bulldog in one arm and take a picture with the other arm?

new waterfall in brentwood
Brentwood, CAThere is a new water fountain in Brentwood I've been wanting to Photograph, but sadly we haven't seen the sun and had me in Brentwood at the same time in several weeks. Finally today there was enough sunlight to go take pictures. I'm not completely happy with this one so I'll be going back at some point.
