Just playing catch-up

Sunday August 28, 2011 As we were getting ready to put the groceries in the car, I realized where, actually, the keys were and that my phone was dead and that Lauren didn't bring hers ???, so back we went into the store where they let me use their phone to call David who brought us my spare set. Geeeez.


Monday August 29, 2011 Driving in our car. Well, actually, David's car, I don't consider his Mazda my Mazda, I have one of my own :D


An overview into the lobby of the Science & Tech Museum in Golden Gate Park.

Tuesday August 30, 2011 There are a ton of butterflies in the habitat portion of the museum, these are just two of them.


Wednesday August 31, 2011 Going stealth outside the Apple Store


Thursday September 01, 2011 Yet another 'ready-for-work' photograph, probably my last for awhile.


Friday September 02, 2011 This began as just the middle portion, but was not enough for my dizzying array of magnets, so we added the top, Lauren neurotically arranged the magnets just so and bottom sections. The gecko was purchased from the science & tech museum the day before. The white paper next to the little calendar is Lauren's holidays and days off :DDD


One-half of what Lauren took to UCSC

Saturday September 03, 2011 And the other half. And this doesn't include her clothes, so...yeah.

if you were just at Gold Gate Park you must be local, right? Thanks so much for the very cute photo, are you in the middle, or as I usually am, the one taking the photograph?

Born and raised there...my parents actually live in Santa Cruz now, but we re-located to Vegas a couple years ago...This was just a trip home to visit. :))

I took the photo, those are my 3 kidlets.

'I took the photo, those are my 3 kidlets.'

that's a relief because I was a little afraid I had someone waaaay to young commenting to me :D

I would have found it hard, I must confess, to leaving the city for Vegas. I hope it has been a worthwhile experience for you and your family.

Your pictures at the Academy of Arts and Sciences came out better (brighter) than mine did.

For a second I thought that second picture was her dorm room and I was thinking they really have upgraded the dorms. :) Actually UCSC did have one of the better reputations for housing.

Interestingly, I wasn't having much trouble taking pictures there, most came out pretty nice. I'm thinking I may do a 'Summer Round-Up' of pics I took and will probably include some more from there.

Wouldn't it be cool if the dorms did look like that, but no. I think their reputation may be good for UC housing, but Lauren's friends in private colleges seem to have it a little better.

All that stuff! I remember what a pain it was to move into and out of college every year.

Nice butterfly shot.

I'll post another photo soon showing how it all packed up, which was pretty sweet, we organized ourselves well & that trunk held a ton of stuff like most of her clothes, the bedding etc. We figured we might as well do it right since she will be moving in and out, like you said, every year.

I'm very pleased with my butterfly shot, one quiet, one fluttery.

Love the movement in the butterfly photo. You know song, Ice, Ice Baby, by Vanilla Ice? The lyrics changed and went running through my head when I saw the Apple store photo, Stealth, Stealth, Baby.

Did Lauren and Jasmin's stuff all fit?

Oh, my word. I never had that much stuff. The rooms were way too small to accomodate it.

They still are; I went back in 2010 to see the dorm and the windows haven't changed so they left the rooms as they were when I was there with different set up for computers, etc.

All that stuff fit in with some room left over :D and except for computer upgrades, I doubt these rooms have changed since the building was built either, like in the late 1060s.

The lobby of the Science & Tech Museum is fabulous!!!
Love that pic!

So cool the of your keys =) Well, I think it was not soooo funny in that moment.

Beautiful the one of the butterfly and the one of you ♥

Oh God, does Lauren have so much space to put everything?

Thanks for sharing =)

Lauren looked at the keys and said, "Well, there's your photo for the day', so some good did come from it.

'Beautiful the one of the butterfly and the one of you ♥'
thank you!!

And yes, all of her stuff not only fit, but there was some room left over, we organized ourselves well. More photos on that next time, I think.

I like the overview shot -- it's a great angle and the colors pop.

it's those green things, the fountain and the tunnel structure. They aren't always there and they really do add that pop.

Wow that's a lot of stuff! Clearly, she was trying to hint at a new family pet -- a pack mule. LOL!
