protecting the wine
The roses attract bugs that will eventually infest the grapes. When the roses get sick, the grapes need treatment.

Normally I’d be enjoying the breezes, but not here. I took this shot from the inside of an archive in West Africa, right on the ocean. Challenges and opportunities for digitization….

movin’ the matrix II
Part two of the move. Same room as yesterday’s picture – our old digital lab. New one is coming together nicely.
my back hurts…
Stock
I can’t believe it’s been that long since we finished college together. Three kids, runs his own business, and put himself through law school finishing at the top of his class. And now? Ok, sure, the law firms are fighting over him, but in the meanwhile he hosted a party at his house. Stock flew in fresh, live blue crab for his own party. The southerner in me takes a deep bow and whispers a gracious thank-you. Stock, you hosted a great day at the expense of your own hard work. A sincere thanks for the invite and the chance to meet your extended family. Enjoy the scotch!
so daggum yummy
from the cape
I thought these fellas were very cute until the larger one sauntered over and began bellowing at me. The waiter from the jazz cafĂ© explained to me that if I shared my beer with the old boy, he’d be quiet. I wasn’t having a beer; I was having a diet pepsi. “I can fix that,” explained the waiter.
I think the seals and wait staff are in league together….

Driving home from golf league, I noticed he was just finishing for the day. I stopped, asked if I could take a picture, and got the look that says “of what crazy man?” But he nodded and said “sure, go ahead.”
Standing behind me, he asked why I was taking a picture of his truck. I told him I was taking a picture of the fire. If I see his truck after golf league Monday, I’ll drop a copy on the seat.
