Anyone Up For A Swim?

Diet Anyone?

Doesn’t this Chocolate Oreo and Strawberry cake look yummy? 

Arnold Schwarzenegger

I was almost tempted to sell this copy of Batman & Robin on LaserDisc that was signed by Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Butterflies At Rock Creek, CA

Butterflies sitting together at Rock Creek, CA.

I know it has been a while since I have posted anything but I have been busy with a lot of work lately.  My full-time job has required me to take on some more responsibilities and well…this weekend was just a holiday so I didn’t have time to post anything.  I thought I would share some footage from my camping trip that we took this past weekend.  We went up to Rock Creek and I came across a large pack of butterflies.  They were just sitting around doing nothing.

Well, I hope you enjoy.

Thanks for reading!

Back To Oro Loma

Today, I have to go out to Oro Loma again on my way to work.  I have to bring in a server that should have been decommissioned a while back but is still alive and happens to house some files on it that are needed.  The photo above is from when we went out last time to bring in some HP Thin Clients.  Look at the server on the bottom of the cart.

Thanks for reading!

Yosemite Valley

Have you ever been to Yosemite?  Probably a lot of you have but there still are hundreds and thousands of people that have never seen Yosemite National Park.

If you are ever deployed to another country or location it helps to know exactly who you might know or have as a resource.

Come On In

Here is an old photo of an old mine shaft that was still open just outside New Idria. 

Beautiful

I had been looking for my 4GB Memory Card and Card Reader for some time now and the last time I seen it was a couple of weeks ago when I finished importing some photos from our vacation.  I looked everywhere in my desk and I know that somebody had to have taken it. 

Almost Gone

This here I thought was almost gone.  A while back I used to backup my photos to DVD and last year I installed Windows 7 on my new computer.  When I reimported all the photos I thought I had done them all but then I had noticed that I had a photo hanging in the hallway that wasn’t in my library in Adobe Lightroom.  I went looking and looking and decided to try to scan through the old DVD’s.  There it was.

Branches

This is a photo of some branches from a tree.

Church In San Francisco

Here is a photo of a church with a huge clock on it in San Francisco.  The Black & White effect looks good doesn’t it?

Thanks for reading.

A Wall of Flowers

Does anyone know what type of plant this is?  It was growing on a wall at the hotel where we stayed at in Palm Desert, CA. 

Palm Springs’ Aerial Tramway

Have you ever wanted to go from one climate temperature to another in just a few minutes?  Palm Springs has the Aerial Tramway which is the largest rotating tramway in the world.  It takes you from Palm Springs Temperatures (65 or so the day we went up) to the top of Mount San Jacinto. (30 degrees or so)
