9Jul23 - I saw Jesse, the Maintenance Guy for our apartment complex, coming around the corner at the far end of the main road. His little golf cart came to a stop, and then it slowly started moving towards me. The man standing under the medium sized tree, looking up into the branches, was me, with my camera. Jesse did a U Turn, and resumed whatever he was doing...

9Jul16, in Walla Walla WA for Andrea's and Ray's wedding: before and after photos of me and my siblings, Before and WAY After... I made sure I stood a little forward in our line up so I could still be the tallest one :)

This post is from 5 years ago, during Covid time, on 8Juyl21 - "Our little museum in Bothell WA has been closed due to Covid since last year. We just celebrated the 4th of July! They've been changing the exhibits periodically, and displaying them by highlighting items near the windows. This is a win-win for me because I also like the glass windows, and the reflections - there are "layers" of images, from close-ups to items in the middle of the rooms, and out through the windows on the other side...

some images from my FB Memories this morning...

Some BW photos from earlier Cebu taxi rides...

from 3Jul2016 - "My walk yesterday morning and my bike ride today were both exercises in nostalgia. Yesterday I walked up "the Ave" (University Avenue) and thru the UW campus. Today I rode my bike along the waterfront to Century Link Field, up through Chinatown, back up to the Pike Place Market and the Myrtle Edwards Park. I didn't take out my camera until I got to 4th and Main where the "Gasperetti's Roma Cafe" once stood. Gasperetti's was owned by my Uncle Bill Gasperetti, and I worked there from age 15 1/2 up to age 19? There's a new building there now, currently under construction. I found this Postcard photo with Google just now. I remember they had them by the Cashier. That's my Uncle Bill and Aunt Marie coming out to their car. The thing that got me to pull out my camera was this group of new commemorative tiles along the sidewalk. Gordon Hirabayashi was a Japanese American Sociologist who at age 24 was imprisoned for disobeying the WWII internment order."

from 2Jul22, 4 years ago - My better half walked with me yesterday morning, the first of many Bothell walks together. Nice day. We walked our "meadow" walk, the old Wayne golf course, and we chose the trail on the other side of the river that goes along the hillside. There are some Very nice houses on East side of the bridge when you walk over. The river view shot is looking West (photos with old iPhone SE)

This is one of my favorite shots from the Greenwood Car Show 2 years ago, on 1Jul24. This little girl was taking in the car show with her family, maybe after attending a church service or something. I wonder what she was thinking...

The temperature got up around 90 degrees on 29Jun22, when we were still living in Bothell WA. We went to the swimming pool, and when I looked over at the clubhouse, I noticed some white clouds drifting in. I thought we left the blue sky and white clouds back in Cebu. Nope. Very nice afternoon in Bothell...

28Jun23 - The Greenwood Car Show on Saturday was humongous! I got there at 9am, and there were around a million people there already. I had to park quite far from where the 7 or so city blocks of Classic cars were lined up. I never saw the stoner movie "Dude, Where's My Car?", but those words popped into my head when I returned to my car. It was a very meandering search. I could probably apply for a Cartographer whatever job in the Greenwood/Phinney Ridge area now -- ps - I took over 200 photos in, around and between other car show viewers... The steering wheel knobs "have also been called 'suicide knobs'. This negative connotation caused people to assume they were illegal. In fact, steering wheel knobs are sometimes prescribed to people with applicable disabilities to assist them in driving." I loved the suicide knob in my DeSotos and the 54 Chevy!

a Seattle Waterfront walk with Inday 5 years ago, on 27Jun21 - I like Neon, even in the daytime
