Eerie Evening Of Waltz
Took my mom down to the Casa del Prado in Balboa Park to attend the “Eerie Evening of Waltz” Halloween dance put on by my sister and her husband and their vintage dance organization, Waltz & Such. Good selection of music, even just to take pictures to. Having a couple of cute spinning girls to …

First Facebook Video Chat
Finally had my first video chat using Facebook’s Skype interface. Was really glad it was with my nephew. It was brief but cool to see him again. Plus he made his grandmother very happy by saying hi to her as well.

New Blog Recipe
Took pictures of my mom making authentic-ish Hungarian gulyás (goulash) to one day post on my recipe blog. I can add this one to the other five I have waiting to add.

Cue The Bad Music
Invaded the intimate privacy of two consenting adult insects just so I could bring these educational images to my viewers. All three of you.

137th SDNHM Annual Meeting And Open House
Took my nephew Stephen to this year’s Annual Meeting and Open House at the San Diego Natural History Museum. Started off a little boring with a rather lackluster meeting and some dry cookies, but then got much better once we took the tour three floors below to the snakes and lizards specimens, up to the second …

Two Shortest Saints
Met up with my old high school buddy John this afternoon. First time I’ve seen him since graduating thirty five years ago . We sat down outside a Starbucks at University Town Center in La Jolla and never once talked about high school.

The Coughing Is The Worst
Another day of not feeling my best. Can’t stand this nagging cough, but at least it tells me I’m on the back half of this cold. Spent another day working on photos while catching up on podcasts. Best news today was that my BFF Brenda passed her teacher’s certification test, which she was sure she …

Not Well
Because of a stupid cold, not very much happened with me today. After I buried a dead Monarch to stop a Yellowjacket from eating it and after I played a couple of levels of Angry Birds and after I posted some photos on Facebook, Flickr and Google+, I just watched a lot of stuff: the …

The Prickly Arachnid Show
A larger, orb-weaving spider set up shop just outside our kitchen window which gave me a perfect opportunity to get some macro close-ups without actually getting close and with being inside a nice, warm kitchen. Gave me a chance to use my tripod for some really good, steady, sharp images. Can’t believe how something that …

One Day, Three Stages Of Life
Found a dying Monarch Butterfly that couldn’t fly on our driveway. No idea what was wrong with it. Looked really healthy although with a bit of a skinny abdomen. Picked it up and took it to one of our milkweeds for it to feed. Tried three times. Always ended up falling off and landing in the dirt. …

Perfectly Named
Came across this little guy on one of our plumeria plants. Apparently they love to destroy tomato plants. I’ll have to keep an eye out for more of them. They have super nasty looking pointy larvae. Their name? Keeled treehopper.

O’Cains Part Two
Our friends who arrived yesterday came over again this morning for some breakfast and a visit with my sister, her husband and my older brother who brought over his three kittens. They were here for only a few hours before continuing on their journey to meet up with more old friends.

Old, Old Friends
Old family friends who we haven’t seen in over forty years arrived this afternoon for a quick 24 hour visit. Too bad I can’t remember them other than by their family name. We sat and chatted, then went out for a Mexican dinner at Tio Carlos in the Midway area meeting my older brother and his kids …

Google+ Chat with Cali
Had a very brief chat with Cali Lewis on Google+ today. Surprised to find out that she originally wanted to be a marine biologist. That she didn’t is a pity for all the moist animals that she would have befriended, but lucky for the rest of us arid, land-based mammals that she chose geeknicity.
