Panhead Roli

, , / 1 minute of reading /

In 1987, I had made plans to ride my bike to Daytona Beach, FL for Bike Week. A friend of mine from up north heard about it and told me that he was hanging out with some Swiss guy that was also riding to Daytona and suggested that we should ride together. I took his recommendation and told him to give the Swiss guy my address. A few weeks later, a long-haired guy with a big smile, and very little English, showed up on my porch. A couple hours later we headed out in the rain towards Florida. To make …

Is it winter yet?

There are several reasons why I live in Southern California and being able to go to the beach in the middle of December wearing a t-shirt ranks right up there. Since Tanya’s time here is drawing to a close, and the weather was so nice, we decided to go up to the Palos Verdes Peninsula in search of a dog beach I recently heard about. My picture of the day for day 344 is a candid photo Tanya took while we were out exploring the cliffs and shore of the Rancho PV.

Our First Christmas Card

, , , , / 1 minute of reading /

Tanya and I have been dating for more than three years, but there are certain things we have never done together. We have never celebrated Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Years together. It was not until this past July that we were together on my birthday. I guess we are now officially one step closer to being accepted as a couple. We got our first Christmas card that was addressed to the two of us. My picture of the day for day 343 is of Tanya and I holding our first Christmas card that we received from our friends, Phil and …

341 Days Later

Tanya wanted to go to Barnes & Noble to do some research. I was planning on buying The Kid some books for Christmas, so it made sense to tag along and finish up my Christmas shopping. I bought four classics and Tanya discovered she already owned the best book for her needs. Since our errands were complete and Lucille’s was across the parking lot, we decided to stop by for dinner. While eating I recalled that my very first Project 365 photo was taken at Lucille’s. I decided that my photo of the day for day 342 would be of …

Next to finding a photo worth taking each day, probably the most difficult part of Project 365 is thinking of something interesting to say about the photo. Today is a perfect example of this. My picture of the day for day 341 is of Buddy. At the end of every walk, Buddy lets me remove his Gentle Leader and leash, then he sits, watching the house, waiting for the signal to get his furry butt over there and in the back yard.

Walking Together

Tanya is not much of a morning person so she has never joined Buddy and me on our morning walks. However, nine times out of ten she will join us for our evening walks. My picture of the day for day 340 is of the three of us on an evening walk, waiting for the light to change.

Motorcycle Toy Run

Sunday, Tanya and I went out to Chatsworth for a motorcycle toy run. This is something I have been doing for about 30 years. Bikers used to get a bad rap before Harley-Davidson became a status symbol for lawyers and doctors, so I do what I can to clean up that image. My picture of the day for day 339 is of me on my Limited, toys strapped on and loaded into the saddle bags, headed out to a toy run sponsored by the HA. There must be a clubhouse in heaven set aside for them.

Ride To Cooks Corner

Saturday, my son called and asked if I wanted to go for a ride. Since it was not raining and Tanya was game, I was all for it. We met down in San Juan Capistrano then rode over to Cook’s Corner for lunch. All in all, not a bad way to spend a Saturday afternoon. My photo of the day 338 was taken at Cook’s Corner. Featured are Tanya with my Limited and Daniel with his Fat Boy.

Tis the Season

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 …

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 …
