The airport at least. On the road to Orlando via ORD. What is that white stuff on the ground?

Of the proposal that is. Finally put to bed? Time will tell...and now another SOW to work on. The fun never ends, but better than the alternative.

again?!?
Another week, another trip. This time off to Fredericksburg, VA. The only upside is the rapid rise in frequent flier miles. If only I had the time or energy to take advantage of them...

day trippin'
More travel (sigh), this time by car down to Fun Diego to visit my dad. While I've made the LA-SD-LA trip hundreds of times, it is easy and hard at the same time. Of course the boy loves being cooped up in the car all day. At least I was able to stop by the BMW dealer and get the parts I ordered a month or so ago. Waaay too busy...

bag it
I have a luggage problem. Or lack or luggage problem. Or lack of proper luggage. Lately I have been traveling light with a capital "L". Just a change of socks and underwear in my small backpack. I've hated checking bags since forever, so I avoid it whenever possible. Now that they charge you for checked luggage the incentive is greater, but that has led others to just go "carry-on." Sadly, some aren't quite as frugal with their bag size and invariably the overhead bins fill up these days. Since I don't have a carry-on "roller" or equivalent bag, I went looking for one today. But I was determined not to become the people who annoy me when traveling.

f'burg
Or so the locals call it. Another whirlwind Monday, getting the boy to school, into the office, cab to the airport, winging across the country, pick up the rental car ("it's how much?!?"), and drive south to Fredericksburg, VA. Now at the Hampton Inn Suites. Actually a nice room, and I'm here in one piece so I can't complain. A full day tomorrow and Wednesday, then back west again.
I hope this is the last trip of the month...

the balance
Sometimes with projects there is a way they "should" be, and then there is the reality. That reality is often dictated by budget, but sometimes is about more intangible things. Like personalities and expectations. Even if you've got cubic dollars, if a collaborator insists that the sky is green and you think it is blue...well, there's going to be a problem. So then project management becomes more about people than knowledge/design/results. I think I already knew that, but perhaps I needed a little reminding...

Well, end of week anyway. And a long one it was...time for a walk with a lens.

A ride around Palos Verdes, with the challenge being to avoid being blown off the road.

stand back
something hot and wet, but not my words. A guy can dream...
Stand Back!

What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet
They're on to something, picking up
Picking up this heat, this heat

the feast
A traditional xmas dinner. Not. Fantastic nonetheless.
road home
holding the light for another day
chasing whims on a crooked path
it swells and drops a scary pose
homework done you lose the math
adding colors helps a slight return
laying out rules for drawing your bath

The last day of 2008, fading light at the playground. Nothing deep to say other than 2008 has been an interesting year with some great times and I can't really complain. It could be a lot worse...
