Big Red Machine Annual Toy Run Chatsworth, CA – December 5, 2010 A Christmas tradition I have participated in for as long as I can remember is attending motorcycle toy runs. I have some great memories from them and both of my kids were regular attendees. Heck, my daughter was nursed under the shade of a Harley-Davidson at a toy run back in 1982. Since bikers always get a bad rap, I feel it is my responsibility to go to at least one a year. Today, the SFV Big Red Machine held their annual toy run to benefit needy children. …

Tis the Season

, , / 1 minute of reading /

The other night I was at a Christmas party at the Staples Center. Without thinking, I greeted one acquaintance with a “Merry Christmas.” A few minutes later, I did the same with his wife, who reminded me that while she was a Christmas person, her husband celebrated Hanukkah. Doh! That is it. From now on, unless the person is wearing a cross or a Star of David,they are getting a “happy holidays” from me. My photo of the day for day 337 is of a decoration hanging on a neighbor’s tree. I guess it is the Ghost of Christmas Past …

Movember Gala Parte Los Angeles Avalon Hollywood, December 3, 2010 My regular readers certainly know that I was a participant in the Movember Foundation’s campaign last month to raise funds for and awareness of mens health issues, specifically prostate and testicular cancer. Since I had 40 years of facial hair, I started off by having a fundraiser to get me to shave it all off. In about 45 hours my goal of $1,000 was met and I shaved it all for Movember. Beginning November 1, I started growing the moustache back. As a thank you to all the participants, gala …

Photos From Hockey Night At Staples Center

Photos From Hockey Night Los Angeles Kings vs Florida Panthers Last night, Tanya and I went to a Christmas party that a friend of ours has thrown for the last couple of years at the Staples Center. Since Tanya and I have yet to spend a Christmas together, we dress up a bit to get in the festive mood, and use this as our Christmas celebration. The Los Angeles Kings hosted the Florida Panthers, and defeated them 3-2. The Kings were down 2-1 in the second period, so it is not like it was an easy win. Everyone had a …

Project 365 November 2010 Recap

, , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

A Picture a Day, Project 365 November 2010 Photos November was an interesting month. It started off with me having no facial hair for the first time since 1971. Luckily, the beginning of the month was pretty warm, so that made the transition from furry to bare a little easier. As far as travel is concerned, Tanya and I drove up to Northern California and checked out the redwoods and visited a couple friends. Other than that, my travel was all within 150 miles of my home. I have a feeling that 2010 is going to end with me sticking …

Raising a Ruckus

, , , , / 1 minute of reading /

I try to make it a habit to bring my point and shoot camera with me whenever Buddy and I go for our walks as there is a great chance that I am going to find something [I find] interesting to photograph. Thursday morning was no exception, in fact, there were a few pictures I could have posted for my photo of the day today. As Buddy and I walked from one park to another, we could not help but notice the large number of seagulls hanging out in the park. Buddy was off in a flash and the birds …

Some things are meant to be. On Saturday, I told my friend Phil to make sure he was free on December 12, as the 7th Annual David Mann Chopperfest was coming up. It is up in Ventura, and is a nice ride from here. Besides, I need to hunt down some vintage Harleys and we have a mutual friend that will be coming down from up north, so there are several reasons to attend. Wednesday morning, I received an email from a motorcycle enthusiasts forum called MotoZania.com that I am a member of. They were having a contest in which …

End of Movember

, , , / 1 minute of reading /

Well, it has been fun, but this is never happening again. This is the last day of Movember, so while many of my friends will be shaving tomorrow (or tonight), I will be throwing all my shaving supplies away. Never again will a blade touch this face. Anyway, if you would like to donate on behalf of my efforts this month, donations are still being accepted at Movember.com. My photo of the day for this last day of Movember is of my moustache, after 30 days of growth. I do have a Movember gala to go to Friday evening, so …

Fall Has Fallen

When I look around the neighborhood, it becomes pretty clear that winter is almost here. The leaves have changed colors and have now fallen from the trees. My photo of the day for the 333rd day of 2010 is of one of the neighborhood trees after the leaves fell.

Artsy

, , , / 1 minute of reading /

I have mentioned to Tanya that many of her photos are artsy, and that is a skill I do not really feel I have. Yesterday, while walking Buddy I saw a couple of opportunities to try and become more artistic. Unfortunately, I only had my point and shoot and the sun was quite bright, so it made it difficult to see what I was shooting. My photo of the day for day 332 is my attempt at art.
