I am consistently amazed at the little treasures that have started turning up. This week I found a Porsche 356 in Gulfport. Sadly I never caught the owner’s name..
She is the second owner of the vehicle, buying it for $3000 about forty years ago, when she was 18. At twenty one she had driven her [...]
The beginning part of the week has slipped a some from my memory. Usually I make a note or two to job my mind, but there is not much for the first few days.
Wine tasting at the restaurant Monday. All the wines tasted really young to me. Most were 2008 vintage and not close to [...]
Moving to Gulfport I was amazed at the density of really cool, decorative, and intricate mailboxes and began a project to locate and document any artistic artistic expression that went beyond the stock USPS regulated box.
I’ve not made any additional progress since last fall and realized that completing the project dovetails nicely with my theme of Production. [...]
The holiday’s intrusion this week let it fly past ever faster having 20% less filler. I even tried to strech out the posting to later on Friday to squeeze a little more into the week. Seems that the “day off” also had me taking less photos over the week.. dunno why that would [...]
Living in Florida this past year has been most interesting. I’m living on the west coast of Florida on a peninsula that reaches into the area where Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico meet. Flatter land and warmer water than in San Francisco.
Shelley and I arrived in Florida May 8, 2008 fresh from our [...]
I have accepted a position in New York City and will be moving to Brooklyn later this week! (You should picture me dancing about bubbling with excitement as you hear those words) For those of you that hadn't heard it is a recent development... less than a week since the offer. So there has been a frantic pace of apartment hunting with this Clinton Hill duplex the front runner: I am also tempted by high rise living.. something about a corner apartment on the 40 somethingith floor of a mid-town building..... So I'm furiously packing and trying to remember ...
Over the US Thanksgiving Day weekend I finally had the opportunity to catch up on Lost. I've made it through seasons 4 & 5 and am now working on season 1, with 2-3 to follow. Present Theories: Jacob is the father trying to raise his child. A loose parallel of Christian and Jack. The Island is a prison: Jacob and "friend" are in the prison. Jacob is a warden whos "powers" can escape the island. I've come up with a list of questions for which I'd like to find answers: How is Jin hopping thorough time in Season 4 with the other Island persons but ...
I finally made my way to Tampa Bay's water's edge to catch a sunrise. I liked it more than the sunsets... There felt more of an activity about at least with the birds and the dolphins. Pelicans and seagulls were swooping about and the dolphins were friskily feeding. Aside from a lone tug boat heading out to the Gulf of Mexico there was little human activity seen on the water. I had also forgotten how long it takes for the sun to cross the horizon once the eastern sky begins to lighten. I was ...
