Day 11 in Nepal



Last Thursday I met Katy in Tung Chung for Lunch and after our Thai meal we went and explored an old nearby fort.
I forgot to upload the photos before, but I finally got to it now.

Nepal Day 7 is up

Day 7

Christmas Time in Hong Kong

I picked up the box of gifts sent from New York today.  We opened them as soon as Katy and Jonathan got home.  We want to thank everyone for their awesome gifts!

The quote of the night; as the poopin' penguin was all wound up and released on the table,
Jonathan, "Its head fell off!!"
He ducks down to grab it off the floor
Katy, "It's pooping everywhere!!"

 Here is a semi-reenactment of what transpired....

And here are some other assorted pictures of our night......

Savannah Georgia Trip 2006 Rescued from Webshots

Wish I could get to do more of this...

Oh How Far I've Come

The quality of these pictures are almost painful, the developing place in Lander was really low tech and gave me a crappy photo CD.  I'll have to scan the pictures if I ever find them again.  Oh digital photography how I love thee.

Rescued my pictures from Webshots

I was looking back at my old NOLS photos that I had posted on Webshots.com about 6 years ago.  I realized how awful that site was and how feature-less and not very user friendly it was compared to Picasa.  They require you to use their software to download your OWN photos, which I reluctantly did.  However, they limit you to only downloading one of your albums, luckily I only had two on there.  I used the terrible software to get my 56 NOLS pictures back on my computer, then quickly uninstalled it. 

I did a google search and found this Greasemonkey script that allowed me to download all of the Webshots photos that I wanted (fancy that?!?!).  I just deleted the albums I had on their site, they don't allow you to delete your account (sounds about right doesn't it?)

My photos are being uploaded to Picasa right now, i'll post the links when they are done

Sunday Music Jam

Went to the Hong Kong Folk Society's monthly jam at The Canny Man, Katy and Ruth came.  We ended up playing for about 5 hours.  I guess it was about 16 musicians total.  Katy was gracious enough to take some photos.

After hearing about zero degree temperatures in NY this morning I'm thankful I can still wear T-shirts most of the time.

"Yea, that's right, I don't even need to look when I'm soloing..."

First time in about a year and a half I've put any photos up on facebook, after ripping all my others off and out of Zuckerberg's clutches.
