Me & Nicole

What the heck happed to my little girl? She's gettin' all growed up on me.

Long time, no train

The train hasn't come this way in a long, long time.

There's a mammoth in the atrium!

In the atrium at work they set up a woolly mammoth and a woolly rhino. These are actual fossils, not reproductions. Both are from Siberia, and are 10 - 15 thousand years old. The rhino is cute, he's like the little puppy sidekick for the mammoth. They're for sale, too. For $150,000 you can have one for your very own.

2/10/09 Snow in Tucson

It made a bit of snow in Tucson today. Some parts of town got a decent amount, but at my house there was very litte, as you can see.



I took this pic of the Catalinas as I was driving home for lunch.



The parking garage at work was full due to the gem show, so I had to park on the upper deck. The parking situation did afford a nice view of the Unisource Tower.

Bisbee trip

I went to Bisbee today to fix some printers. On the way through the Mule Mountains, the clouds were rolling in FAST, and it was getting very ominous, very quickly.



A couple hours later, everything was sunny and bright. Here's the Copper Queen Hotel in Old Town Bisbee. Place is haunted, they say. I stayed there once, and didn't see/hear squat.

Fried Ramen for breakfast? You betcha! With eggs & SPAM®, even.

Self-portrait of sorts.
