  • Road Trip

    I drove up to Santa Barbara this afternoon and Eva and I headed up to San Francisco (Pacifica) in separate cars, as she had to drive a friend’s car up as a favor.  Bassam will fly in tomorrow, and all three of us will drive back Sunday.  We arrived at Tom, Cathy & Patrick’s beach home as the sun sank into the Pacific.  Now it’s 3 AM and the moon is sinking in too.   Here a few photos before bed.


    That’s my reflection taking a picture of Eva zooming down the 101


    A picture perfect day for a drive up the Pacific Coast


    Regular gas was $4.56/gallon in Kingsland, CA!!


    I was shocked!


    Eva nearly died!


    Marcelo, Emily, Eva & Mariana attempting to spell out “GLY” as the sun set.  Many of you have asked what “GLY” stands for.  Unfortunately, that’s a story I can only tell in person.  It would be impossible to explain in writing.  If you’re ever in Southern California, I’d be happy to share its origins!

  • great pix man – i guess i shouldn’t bitch about out 3.50/gal price here!  peace, Al

  • focus on driving! not thinking of what photography you can capture and subsequently use as content for blogging!

    4.52?! i hope you didnt fill up all the way. or even half way. ouch.

  • 4.56!?

    I’m amazed that people in California can afford to do anything except pay for gas all day. haha

  • Looks like a fun time. i think it costs far less to keep a mule than a car and you’d be able to talk with your transportation. Think about it. i enjoy sunsets immensely, my second favorite time of day. The best is that couple of hours in the wee morning before sun-up. So peaceful. Enjoy your weekend!

  • very cute pictures!

  • A full tank on my Civic now costs almost $50! 

    Now that wasn’t you taking the picture while driving right?  And she wasn’t really on the cell phone while driving right?  hee hee….

  • hahahaahahahahahahahhaahah

    “I was shocked!”

    those are great pictures though, the ones in the car? especially that first one! with the background all blurry, awesome!

  • lol the GLY pic was pretty awesome

    and damn! 4.56 for regular? and here i complain here that gas are in the 3.50s

  • @MaximMan - I’m not sure what’s getting worse.  Gas prices or your profile pics!

    @Sc12EeN17aM3 - Thanks Jad.  Hope you’re having a nice weekend.  GLY

    @qccan - A mule on the 101 huh?

    @Dezinerdreams - Thanks V!

    @ElusiveWords - Talking on the phone while driving is MUCH worse than taking pictures while driving!!

    @shake_things_up - Thanks!  That SD 1000 is shaping up to be a pretty good little camera!

    @owbert - OK Dad Albert!  LOL.  I actually didn’t even realize how much the damn gas was until I was full, and the pump said over $60!

    @pukemeister - 

  • Who needs the 101 when ya have a mule!

  • nice shot of your own reflection on that blue bug.  you must’ve used a pretty fast shutter speed.
