Glad to see these survived the frost (and snow) from earlier this week!
Spring cleaning
“Does that bag really have to go? I came to this country with all my belongings in that bag” he pleaded, knowing fully well what the outcome would be…
Total lunar eclipse :-)
Set up alarm for 2:50 am Eastern to see the blood red moon at its peak (predicted for 3:07 Eastern). Everything looked foggy, so he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. No it wasn’t his groggy eyes – but the cloud cover in Atlanta made for a foggy view out of his 45th floor room at the Marriott Marquis, downtown Atlanta. A telescope did not help either.
Bummed that he got a regular total lunar eclipse instead of a blood red one after carrying an SLR, a tripod and battery chargers on a tightly packed business trip, he rolled right into bed around 3:15 am… He was glad he did not dress up for the no-show (and that explains the silhouette 🙂
BTW, that’s the Suntrust building in downtown Atlanta in the background
Dino-skeleton at Chicago O’Hare Airport
After realizing that the [url=http://www.blipfoto.com/entry/4159668]Atlanta airport dino-skeleton[/url] was not dangerous, he braved a bigger one at ORD today getting as close as he could with his wide angle lens…
Spring has sprung
The lone cherry blossom against a backdrop of bare brown trees that are still waiting for their spring call… Could not make it to the DC Cherry Blossom festival this weekend, so making do with this one by the lake.
Lego and I both have new point and shoot cameras 🙂
Kids’ wood project at Lowe’s
Once a month Lowe’s holds a workshop for kids to make projects – this time they made recycle trucks (Earth day month). Yes, that’s supposed to be his hammer / mallet (though it looks eerily like an axe 🙂
Tree set on fire by the sun
Do you see what I see?
Through his Lego eyes, the Buckhead skyline look like Legos stacked to say “1-0-0”, but I think he was grasping for blip #100 – all I could see was “I a m” or “l a w”…
Whatever this looks like to you, they are near Lenox Square Mall in Buckhead, Atlanta.
“I came from WHERE?”
After verifying the store hours, he made it to the Lego store in the LEGOLAND Discovery Center Atlanta today, and felt at home… until he saw body parts scattered around – of all shapes and sizes. Kids were dismembering little people and creating frankenlegos…
He kept out-of-sight until there were no kids around, but the scene was so gruesome that he had to take a picture before the next batch of kids escaped from Legoland.
And that’s when he realized… that’s where baby Legos come from…
