Sad Day In The Kingdom
Had to begrudgingly take Brenda to the airport for her return flight back to Austin.
Mo(u)rning of her departure
Must be the right place
Leaving me yet again
Into the belly of the goodbye beast
We ran into an old friend
Last shot before someone else scans her body

My Day With Sylvia
Spent a good chunk of the day with Sylvia, running errands, picking up lunch, Christmas decorating and just getting things done.
First stop, Costco
Picking up necessities
Next stop, K-Mart
I stayed for this and got a free paring knife
Picking up lunch from Taco Bell
Final outdoor decorations
Enjoying my ladder time
The boy in the bubble
Hope they work
Wrapping Rachel’s present

Tapias’ Xmas Lights!
Climbed to new old heights to place the Tapias’ colored Christmas lights along their roof. From there I could see from Tijuana to the Los Coronados Islands to downtown San Diego to the giant water tank looming above their backyard.
