Cash for ????

We participated in the cash for clunkers program and it was poorly run and our dealer held the vehicle illegally but we got a cool new car. The problem was in two areas. The web site set up by Citi group was not prepared for the onslaught. The dealers did not take the clunkers as directed in the program and stuck it to consumers by holding their cars.Here is a look at our farewell to jeep.

After stopping in at the doctor we headed to the beach. We also stopped in at the I center and picked up some Maui Wowie to top things off.

And our new Versa at Camel Rock

Here is a little 4th of July footage. I love to watch Fireworks, and I do know it is a horrible waste.

Memorial Weekend

Road over the bridge to Manila to watch some of the 40th Kinetic Sculpture Race. This was one of the newest floats the Octo-mom. There was music and lots of folks despite the truly abysmal weather. The vendors stayed away, no Co-op with free giveaways and only one hot dog stand. The music was mellow and the racers as usual had gone all out "For the Glory"

Found a piece on peace

Hope you are all getting the chance to keep up with my "Quiet Spot" photos on twitpic. Here is a little sample.

I am trying to keep up with this project and spent a bit of time organizing files and tagging pics to keep track of everything. I have already screwed up and posted some duplicates. At this point I am simply building a catalog with a hope of doing something more detailed over time. Found a lot of half used files and forgotten tapes. Thought I would share this short film from the 09 peace walk here in town that I rediscovered.

May Day Musings

Hope you all had a better day than I. Pouring rain and morons plagued my afternoon so I though I would share more of my quiet spots with you. The last spot is above the mouth of the Klamath River. The other two are from deep in Redwood National Park. I like to take a moment and think about these places each day as I try to stay out of the clock tower.

Quiet spot of the day

I am posting a pic each day on twitpic I am calling the quiet spot for the day. A little reminder to clear the mind every now and then.
