One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Orange CA 2006 Johnny Rebs


On this day in 2006 we took our niece Erika to Johnny Rebs in Orange. She got to color, play with her My Pretty Ponies and eat good Southern food. It was a good night.

One A Day - On This Day in 2005

Orange CA Our House

On this day in 2005 Tom was on high alert. I think Mom and Oma were arriving and he wanted to be there to say hi or to bark if it wasn't someone he knew.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Orange CA Our House


On this day Larry was enjoying his synthetic pig ear on his pink dot. Our house has a room with green indoor outdoor carpet so we bought some pink dot carpets at Ikea to liven things up.

One A Day - On This Day in 2004

Orange CA Our House

On this day in 2004 we have an Italian Greyhound get together at our place. We originally called it an Italian Greyhound BBQ but we quickly figured out that could cause a misunderstanding. It's a lot of fun to watch 9 IGs zip around the house for an hour and then nap the rest of the day.

One A Day - On This Day in 2002

Orange CA Our Backyard

On this day in 2002 I bought my first long board. I took it out back and took photos of it. I still have it even though I have not been on it in a while. I just can't bring myself to go into the cold water in San Francisco.

One A Day - On This Day in 2003

Orange CA Our House

On this day in 2003 I thought it would be a good idea to plant an Atari Hedge. It turned out to be a good idea but the hedge didn't survive for some reason. When we return home one day we will give it another shot.

One A Day - On This Day in 2003

Orange CA Our Backyard

On this day in 2003 Bryan aired it out on our trampoline in the back yard as Tony documented the airness. When we were living in Southern California we would host video game parties. We would invite people over, BBQ and play video games. It was fun and I wish I could host parties like this up here but there just isn't the space.

One A Day - On This Day in 2005

Orange CA Our House

On this day in 2005 Tom sat in my lap as I played poker on PartyPoker. 2005 was the year it was all happening online and I was there to scoop up a little piece of the poker pie.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Orange CA Our Front Yard



On this day in 2006 I think it was Mother's Day and we were prepping to have the family come over. I noticed this very large (for Orange) spider in our front yard on a some flowers so I took a picture.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Orange CA Our Garden

On this day we purchased a bunch of lady bugs and released them into our garden. It was fun seeing 100s of lady bugs in such a small area. A few days later there were only a few left so I guess we did the neighborhood a favor too.

On this day in 2006 a wasp tried to eat our Pea Trellis. He was able to take a few bites at a time but didn't do much damage.

Orange CA Our House

On this day I felt the need to take a photo of our cool Tiki Patio that I miss very much. We hosted many BBQs and parties on our patio and we look forward to the day when we can do it again. Who knows? Maybe will invite you to one of our BBQs one day.

One A Day - On This Day in 2007

Orange CA Our House

On this day I flew back to SoCal to help Donna pack up for the big move. It took a month for Donna to be able to move up. It was a long month.

One A Day - On This Day in 2007

Orange CA Our Soon to be rental house

On this day in 2007 we continued to pack up the house and video game room for the big move. We had to cut our stuff down and could only take about 1/5th of it. We sold about 1/4 of our stuff (big stuff that took up a lot of space) and put the rest in storage. It is patiently awaiting our trip back to Southern California sometime in the future.

One A Day - On This Day in 2007

Orange CA Our House


On this day in 2007 we had a going away party with our "dog" friends. We had a nice BBQ and then set the camera on a stack of boxes and took this photo that doesn't have very good composition. It was a nice day and we miss our "dog" friends.

One A Day - On This Day in 2007

Orange CA Our House

On this day in 2007 I got my offer letter from LucasArts. I didn't know what was in the box so I opened it slowly and took pictures.

It was a LucasFilm Timbuk2 bag. I didn't know that Timbuk2 was all the rage in bags in San Francisco until I moved up. They turned out to be all the rage.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Orange CA Our Backyard

On this day in 2006 we continued to pimp our garden. Tom really liked the sun warmed bag of wood chips. I felt bad asking him to get up so we could spread them out.
