Yesterday I went to church. Took a few shots but did not download or develop these yet.

We spent the day with my brother, went shopping for some trousers shoes and T Shirts

Later went to a Chinese place where they make their own fresh noodles.

Due to the extended shopping efforts it was dark when we drove home.

Now I go shooting. CU later. NG meetup planned for Tuesday evening.

Another phone only image. Too much to drive and care and meet and talk. Not much time for shooting, let alone editing.

Today at Google I took pics with the big cameras and in the morning in St Clara and in the evening in Berkeley. SF pano at night from the Bay Bridge only with my eyes from the drivers seat.

There is so much to do and the distances to drive are huge. My son is 15 and does not drive.

I cannot shoot much driving on the Freeway at 65 mph....

I will take some time to develop pictures. It is 3 am here. Have to catch up some sleep.

Thank you for the encouragement!!!!

A little catching up in a sleep deprived night

2) Breakfast in America (@7/11)
3) A street near the Lawrence parish where I went to Sunday Service

All American plumbing (series to be continued)
It is fascinating how some things are done differently abroad.
Sometimes there is no best way, no single solution.
Yet there is a reason why Japanese create the same or better standard of living on a 33% Energy budget...
