Mouse in the house: The Two Losers

The loser cats are pictured here. Misty (Old Loser #1, the gray cat), and Odie (Young Loser #2, black). Here they are, in all of their shame, the morning after the mouse was trapped on a sticky sheet, in non other than our new kitchen!

Yeah, I know...the mouse was the real big loser.

Happy Thanksgiving!...sort of...

There has been a lot going on these last few days.

Included is my wife, Cruz, at her childhood home for the last time ever, sadly to liquidate the property.

The flu, or some stomach bug, is slamming us on Thanksgiving Day. The turkey is OUT of the question.

On a good note, the Garage has new mountings, and yes, that IS Pete's autograph for Allen's picture on his wall.

Otherwise, time off of work, holidays, etc., all is not as bad as it could be.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Garage

Allen, with Rachel Fuller (black and white printer, it was), in his garage, in front of his CD player. To the left, you can see his signed copy of Mikey Cuthbert's CD. The photo was later placed on his Wall of Fame.

Rachel has made it to the Garage, after all!

Other photo: A rather somewhat famous drive-in donut shop. My wife, Cruz, grew up just a few blocks away from this critter of a building. It is still there.

Another Grandpa

The Baby Jesse, is seen here with his Dad's Dad, Jesse's Grandpa, Juan, while at a big birthday bash in early November. His Grandma's arm is just barely in the picture, she is Martha, or "Nana". His Mom and Dad, are in the back, though quite headless, it seems!

Also, a photo of the boy with his Mom and Dad, reaching for his cake. It was a well attended event. He is extraordinarily loved.

The grandboy had a birthday party on Sat., 11/4/06, number one. Here he is in his high chair, on the real day of his birthday, Nov. 3rd, with his cake.

Other photos are from the party.

I am one.

Wadda ya know?

After managing a few words with this fellow, the other day, he signed my concert program from the previous Saturday. I only requested his signature...but Pete had other plans. A pleasant surprise, he wrote my name.

ATTIC JAM, Hotel Cafe

Pete and Minnie Driver, Pete and me, Allen and Rachel, Allen and Pete. Rachel and me, Mikey and Allen (before the show), and the unclear photo is Pete being mobbed in the alley outside.

No particular order, just posting as quick as I can.

Though quite warm, A very cool night.

Abbey Road revisited

Abbey Road, the eight track, was found to be somewhere in a box in our kitchen that we are remodeling. I always knew I had these things rolling around, just can't throw 'em away I guess. Here it is on the table where my computer is sitting. The screen is logged to Neil Emery, by the way. All the essential tools of computing are evident here, as the round toothpicks are handy, the Marine Band Harmonica is available, as well as the trusty USB cable for the digital camera.

Hollywood Bowl, the show

A feeble attempt with a cell phone camera, from our seats, but oh what a show it was! The energy of the band was something. Very, very cool.

--Dan

We are going to see The Who tonight in Hollywood. I thought this plane from last week's airshow would be appropriate.

See my previous blog entry on the Hollywood Bowl with photo, to know where we will be tonight.

The little grandboy, Jesse, had a birthday yesterday, 11/3/06. He is now one year old. Pictures will be posted when I can.

Peace,

--Dan
