Photo-A-Day #348 03/22/06

Well, I finished my first trade show. Finished a presentation project that I worked on and presented with Peter. Now I am waiting to fly to my next site for a demo tomorrow in Marshall,MN. I fly to Sioux Falls, SD on a flight that was delayed and than not delayed so who knows when it will happen. Looking forward to an early night on my own timeclock. Only about one week till our trip to Disney. I also found out that Christopher Williams is going to be back at the Lyon’s Den in Norton on April 6th. That will be pretty sweet to get a picture of Christopher during the final week of one year’s work on the Photo-A-Day project. I’m going to continue it of course, it has become something I look forward too each day and I hope that you do too.

Tthe plane did not leave on time, big surprise. I did finish both of the Lost books: Endangered Species and Secret Identity. Both were decent reads and having read all three while Lost has been in re-runs has made me so look forward to a new episode tonight. I am now reading the next Nevada Barr book about National Parks Ranger Anna Pigeon. This book is called Liberty Falling and is set in New York on Ellis Island and Liberty Island. It is so unsettling to read a book or see a movie that shows or describes the World Trade Center in New York, still feels unreal to fly over New York and see such a different skyline now.

Here is a wind farm that I drove by on the way to my next hotel..

Sorting Transformers ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02424 Yesterday I drove Andy to school. Today I walked over with them. I did so not because I didn't think Andy would be safe on their own. Andy has been walking home from school for well over a year so walking to school is the same thing just in reverse. I wanted to see how long it actually took for the walk to go. I of course, over estimated how early we had to head over. The walk itself only takes a brisk 15 minutes. And that is at a modified teenager's shuffle. So Andy can leave the house around 6:25-6:30 and still get there by 6:45 when the doors open to the High School. Good to know. During the day I started one of the projects I've been meaning to start and have been putting off. I'm sorting through my Transformers and getting them ready to sell. I have talked with the guys at Double Midnight Comics about selling them my collection. Not the stuff I have on display and also I am picking out some figures that I want to keep as part of the collectio...

Time with Lexi ...

  Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02401 Today We watched my sister's dog, Lexi. My sister and her husband were coming back up here from their home and they had boarded the dog. They weren't sure if they'd be there in time to pick her up so we did that for them. We had Lexi for a couple of hours before they arrived and we had dinner together. Lexi was pretty chill for the most part until Torrun came in to the living room to investigate. At first they just looked at each other. Andy grabbed for LEXI's leash and then Lexi tried to go after Torrun. Torrun ended up bolting for the upstairs and we did not see her for hours. James knew enough not to even come down.

Time For Another Change ...

  Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02402 Andy decided to clean their room today. In so doing they decided that they no longer wish to hang on to their LEGO sets. So, I now have them all and I spent the afternoon disassembling many sets to fit into the one bucket. There were many Minecraft sets in there. What I'm going to do eventually is take what is in the bucket and separate it down to the individual sets that I still have instructions books for. The organizing of that is going to be daunting. I will try and figure out an efficient way to separate everything but I'm sure that will take some time. Andy also decided that they no longer want the piggy bank that was mine. That I am putting into a box for Andy for when they get older and maybe have kids of their own.
