I feel so left out not showing off my camera phone pix. While when I got my phone it was really important that I have one- I rarely use it. However, when I do need it, it’s so sweet that it’s right there. Besides, me writing shit down? WITH MY HANDWRITING? Shit. Just take a pic.
So a lot of these photos are ancient. That’s cool, right?
Anyway- off we go!

This one… uhm. Yeah, looks like exactly what it is. Me taking a pic of the store hours of a place we simply can’t seem to get the hours right on. Every time we go, the damn place is closed. It’s actually a pretty neat picture- the mirrored tinting makes for an interesting composition.
Ohman. Uhm. I had to go to a Motivation Seminar. There were some interesting moments, and it was a day out of the office, but everything else was lame. Even my lunch was lackadaisical (I love that word). So yah. I doodled. A picture of Cash, asking for more turkey necks. He likes turkey necks.
Rudy gave his brothers Raiders tickets for Christmas. They went and tailgated for three hours before the game. His younger brother took this picture of him. I really quite like it. And uhm… yeah, that flag hangs in front of our house, seriously. It makes it look like I live with a houseful of goddamn pirates. Well, cause I do. Anyway.
This one- wow. That is old. Okay. Back when I worked at BevMo, we were working Christmas eve, and it was dead slow. My assistant manager is a prankster, and to play a joke on our receiver, he stacked all the empty kegs in front of the receiving door. And… well, it kinda grew. There’s a lot of crap there- lots of empty kegs, keg buckets, packing peanuts and we somehow wound up with a bunch of tinsel. It was probably the best day of work EVER. And then I walked out after closing to find my tires were slashed.
When a moment comes up like this, you can’t pass it up. Edgar- Rudy’s cousin, and my honorary brother- is a mechanic. He got a contract with the Sheriff’s department to work on their cars… and somehow, a Santa Cruz County Sheriff lost his driver’s side door.
And this last one… We pass by a full-scale Stonehenge replica every time we drive to Washington State. This last time we drove, we stopped and finally checked it out. Simply awe-inspiring. There also seems to be a monument erected to Sam Hill there…
There ay go kidlets. Hope the stories were interesting, enjoy das piccies!





What the shit?!?!? We have a replica of Stonehenge in WA? How do I not know these things?
yes sir.

Beside the Columbia river, just off of 97.
Holy crap, you can zoom all the way to it on google maps, & you know what? I think that’s as close as I’ll ever want to get to a town called Maryhill.
I recall nearby a little convenience store with a sign that says “Welcome to the Middle of Nowhere”…
Between the Pirate flag, the bottle of Jim Beam, and the dodgy goatee guy…
Looks like trouble’s a-brewin’.
that’s mah old man.
He’s not a troublemaker, he just plays one on TV.
I’ve never seen him throw down unless it was to defend me or someone he cares about.
honestly, he’s just a good guy with wisdom beyond his years.
I love these posts! Stonehenge in WA? Get out!
I know, right?
And I’m kinda bummed, becuase if I had “gotten out of here” … I’d be passing that place right now. There’s a family reunion in eastern WA, and we couldn’t go cause Rudy’s boss sucks.
My boyfriend has that same pirate flag hanging above his bed, and when he moves in it’ll be in the living room. I hear you on the pirate front
Yeah- I love my pirate boy. Love every minute of it. He’s very spontaneous, and I’m very NOT. So he mixes it up, and I always got his six.
