I had the opportunity to see Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band at Staples Center last night. It was a great concert. I have been a Bob Seger fan since Ramblin Gamblin Man, which was around 1969. I have seen close to 100 live acts, but for some reason I never made it to …

Today was the second annual Operation Jack Marathon in Manhattan Beach, CA. My daughter has gotten into long distance running lately, so I decided to come down and shoot the event. Operation Jack was started by a marathon runner, Sam, that has a son, Jack, with severe autism. Sam decided to run for autism awareness …
After our morning motorcycle ride, Tanya and I headed home to prepare to go to my dad’s for Christmas dinner. Tanya fixed her famous strawberry-pecan summer salad and I picked up a few bottles of wine from my Sort This Out Cellars stash. We then packed the car, loaded up the dogs and headed to …
Regular readers to this blog have probably figured out that I have a few Christmas traditions that may not be your typical Norman Rockwell Christmas scenario.

Saturday evening was the 20th Annual King Harbor Boat Parade in Redondo Beach. After spending the day at the Mooneye’s Christmas car show and drag races, I packed up the camera and Tanya and headed down to King Harbor. We decided to have dinner at On the Rocks since they were located at the perfect …
Mooneye’s annual Christmas party includes a custom car show and drag races. Probably the coolest part of the drag races is that the cars are all pre-1969. I was fortunate enough to receive a pit pass this year, so these photos should be a lot better than my photos of last year’s Mooneye’s drag races.
