You can't make this stuff up

This is a now defunct child care center near our friends Desi and
Rose's house.

Where did they go wrong?

The big deck project

Here are all the boards laid out and numbered

These are trex boards. About $1200-1500 in materials. We got them
from a guy getting rid of his deck for $400!

We are building it low to the ground also so don't need a permit

Orange Lily

Check out this awesome orange lily plant! Its a xeriscape plant as
well, I water it maybe once a month!

My beautiful flowers

Those who know me are aware of my deep love for my plants.

Here is one of my xeriscape plants that grows these tall, skinny stems
with large delicate flowers. Very beautiful.
They only last a couple days then fall off, but there is always
another new one it's heels.

There is something very fragile, and yet resilient about flowers that
I love.

RIP: Kymco Scooter (2004-2008)

Today marks the end of an era.

This morning I walked out with briefcase in one hand, and my massive
Spaceballs motorcycle helmet in the other.
I found my bike chain (top part of picture in the shadows) and half of
my master lock. Apparently today's bolt cutters work quite well.
So I suppose my beloved scooter is not dead, but it is certainly no
longer in my possession.

If you would like to mourn the loss of this beloved bike, as well as
mourn the pain in my arse for all the insurance crap I have to go
through (thankfully it was covered), you can visit my blog at http://barguitar.blogspot.com

and leave your condolences.

I will also be setting up memorial fund to help me with my increased
gas expenses. Don't feel comfortable with that? Here are two other
options: you can just send the money to a Big Oil Exec or the Saudi
Arabian prince of your choice...it's all going to the same place.

My girls

Cool...but not that cool
