Royal Street around 4pm.  Musicians setting up on the street.  Just too cool!

Day 158 - Sis

Love it!  An actual key.

Day 157 - Lisa

Lugging all the gear on trips is for the birds, so I went mini!  Netbook, sleeve and umbrella; all fit in my purse.

Day 157 - Sis

Since I needed to iron some things for the trip thought I'd get a good tempo going with my music. Slowed me down real fast when I realized ipod battery was dead. Geez.

Day 156 - Sis

Loosing an inch of hair is much easier than losing an inch of fat. Darn!

Day 156 - Lisa

Day 155 - Sis

Yes there is a shedding winter coat cat that lives here. Little Bissell does a pretty good job.

Car owners in California only wish they had $17 smog checks.  LOL!

Day 154 - Sis

Driving around this time of the year everything's so bright with different hues of green and homes look like they are sitting in private parks. Outstanding.

Day 154 - Lisa

This daily train shakes my office, I wish it would shake me loose.  ;>

Day 153 - Sis

Here in this area I've seen many different customs that I think are pretty special and this is one of them. Signs outside homes proudly displaying the recent High School graduates names and what colleges they will be attending.

Day 153 - Lisa

I'm not drinking the Kool-Aid or this type of tea!

Day 152 - Lisa

The boom of new homes reached its peak in our area several years ago.  Homes sitting right on top of each other.  It's vastly different than the more established neighborhoods we preferred to spacious yards with lots of room between homes.  Sadly, there are now half built communities every where.  Overgrown developments with empty lots or a few homes and nothing else.  People bought houses with promises of community centers, schools, parks and are now left living across the street from exposed pipes and wiring covered with weeds.




Day 152 - Sis

Went looking for tops that would be light and cool for our trip to New Orleans, this is what I bought. Sigh.

Day 151 - Lisa

Healthy breakfast!  OJ and peanut butter cookies.

Day 151 - Sis

Would like to have some Superway Kitchen Chinese food to put this sauce on. This restaurant is in Hayward Ca., my hometown, and first opened over 50 years ago. Sitting between a liquor store, small parking lot which is next to a railroad crossing on a busy street. No foo foo dining, just some of the best tasting food that my family has enjoyed over those 50 years.

Day 150 - Sis

Lisa said I can't lug around Big Bertha so had to buy new size luggage. New purse to put the phone, camera, ipod, wallet, etc. to save another arm injury. New umbrella because weather in the South is likely to include some rain and of course this produced a new bank balance.

Day 150 - Lisa

Gearing up for my next trip, new luggage. I done plumb wore out my last bag over the past two years.

Day 149 - Sis

Ooooooooooouuuch!

Day 149 - Lisa

sunii jumped on bed, hit camera, inadvertently took picture.  She probably got excited; thought it was Sheedy from the Breakfast Club 30 hard years later.

Day 148 - Lisa

Who really knew where pencils came from?  Learn something every day.  ;>

Day 148 - Sis

Seems that saying , "there is no i in team" does not apply to, "we", where there are two, depending on your game, eh.

Day 147 - Lisa

I like the reds & pinks.

Day 147 - Sis

All the latest rain and thunder thunderstorms here lately have brought us many vibrant colors in our own little part of Georgia.

Day 146 - Lisa

So far we have collected with our Coke Reward points:  3 pairs of Coke flip flops, a weekend at the Asilomar in Monterey, a key chain and movie tickets.  All this proves is we drink way way way too much Coke.  ;>  Although in fairness to us we did have a Coke machine in the backyard that all our friends and family enjoyed.  

Day 146 - Sis

Ummm a strawberry sundae makes everything feel better!

Linguica & eggs cooking up; a Moniz family tradition.

Day 6 - well the progress is she's not sitting here, she's actually up, albeit slow, stiff and only for about 5 minutes.

I'm posting for my mom, she's in too much pain to do so herself.  This has been her best friend for the last several days.
