The Way We Wednesday - Self-Timer Selfies

My oldest brother had a low draft lottery number, so he enlisted in the Navy the year he finished high school. After basic training, he was assigned to the Aircraft Carrier Enterprise (now decommissioned and the last I knew it was being dismantled.) Someplace in southeast Asia he bought a Canon Ftb, a nice 35MM SLR. There was also a tripod, the gray zippered case above their arms is the case for the tripod. Looking at this it was taken with the camera on the tripod, and either a cable release or the self timer, I suspect the self timer as Dale is almost blurred from having tripped the timer and rushed back to be in the picture. This would have been taken in one of the crew living areas on the ship. I think Dale only took a couple of rolls of film on the camera, this roll of slides ended up with dad's meaning it was probably in the camera when Dale came home on leave, and somehow Dad ended up keeping the camera. Dad gave it to me a few years b...

The Sunday Five - Books

J.P Morgan had a spectacular private library, which raised questions for me, all of the inspriration I need for this weeks Sunday five. 1: Are there books you have multiple copies or editions of? 2: Have you ever stood in line to buy a first edition on the day it was released? 3: Do you buy books just to own them, or only to read them? 4: Have you read 90% or more of the books you own? 5: Do you have an active library card? My Answers: 1: Are there books you have multiple copies or editions of? No longer, I did at one time, but we have downsized. 2: Have you ever stood in line to buy a first edition on the day it was released? Yes, Harry Potter books. 3: Do you buy books just to own them, or only to read them? Almost always to read. 4: Have you read 90% or more of the books you own? Yes. Probably more than 95%. 5: Do you have an active library card? No, I should do something about that. Please share your answers in the comment...

Thursday Ramble - Late April edition

I have made the first purchase for the kitchen replacement, a new faucet, and the next day the kitchen sink. Both should be here by the time this posts. The faucet is black and square, there was a TV commercial of a couple walking into an architect, placing a faucet on the desk and saying "design us a house around this." Yes, that kind of a statement piece. Appliances remain the major loose end. I am in a crazy busy cycle at the work, three major trainings in two days, and another next week. My first board meeting since becoming director is Friday, I get to shake things up. And it is budgeting season. And we are officially returning to the office. Glad I am taking a week off in May. I am back in a reading frenzy, I bought a stack of books in NYC, and I am almost done with those. More on the Kindle to read. It was nice to get into ink and paper bookstores a couple of times. There is a nice small bookstore ...
