RandD > 2009.03.31 (Tue) - Breakin' the rules

Had a pretty good day at work, got in early to let Tom in, he's a contractor and it was a state holiday so he needed someone to let him in the building.  We had a good chat about his work, then got started working on the validation for one of the user interfaces.  We had a lunch scheduled back at SGS, food was provided and we got some company updates while there.  Afterwards we had a brief meeting about new business opportunities and then returned to finish out the day. 

We had planned a "Guys movie night out" but nothing really looked that good so we opted to run over to subway and grab a bite to eat and then walked over to Starbucks for some coffee.  We had some fun messing with the baristas, maybe a little harmless flriting, and then hung out and talked for a bit before taking off to grab a daily photo.

The Kaiser public affairs person has all but blown off my written request to take photos from the top of their parking garage.  If you remember, last time I was there I was run off by the security guards because I didn't have permission.  Since Bonnie never got back to me I figured I would just go snap a couple of outlaw shots from the parking garage and then take off before security could run us out of there.  It was fun even if the shots weren't that good.

Well, back to the guys night out, hope you all had a nice day.   Until tomorrow,

RandD > 2009.03.26 (Thu) - Poppie, Peyton, and Kayla have fun at Lake Ellis

Had a good day at work today, had scheduled a lunch with Bobby when I got word that we were going to be having an SGS team lunch so I had to bail on my friend.  We'll pick up next week.  Lunch was good, just some shop talk but it was good hanging out with the team.

Returned after work, got the design questions answered and we are set to continue coding tomorrow.  After work I drove out to see Kayla and Peyton.  I took them into Yuba City for dinner at Red Robin and then we drove over to Lake Ellis to see the ducks and geese.  Peyton loves chasing them around.  The sun was low and there were a few minutes of some really warm light, I grabbed this shot of Peyton and her Mommie while we enjoyed the time together.  Here are some more from the trip.

We stopped at Starbucks real quick and Kayla ran in to grab us some drinks, then I dropped them off at their place and zipped back home to see Robin and Brandon.

Hope you all had a good day, until tomorrow,

RandD > 2009.03.25 (Wed) - Robin, more than photogenic	

Had a pretty good day, I read the news article about the death of my friend's son.  When I learned this morning that  Andrew had committed suicide it hit me hard.  I hugged my son a little longer than usual and then drove straight over to see Art.  He was back to work already and I knew he was probably having a tough time staying focused so I made it quick, giving him a hug, some kind words, and my phone number.  He didn't say much, just that he didn't want to be there.  I know how much he loved his son, it was really hard seeing the pain in his eyes.  I can't imagine the depth of his sorrow and my prayers go out to him and the rest of his family.

I went to work and had a descent day, my petty worries were really put into perspective.  Returned home and ate a light and healthy dinner with Robin before taking off to go see my Mom and Pop.  After a brief visit and chat about Art, we ran out to Rocklin in search of a daily photo.  We found a little park at the highest part of Rocklin where we sat and waited for the sun to set.  Grabbed this shot before returning home.

Robin is truly my best friend, she is such a beautiful woman, inside and out.  I love her so much and I can't imagine doing life without her, she stands by my side and loves me like no one else.  Our children are almost all grown now, with Brandon being the last at home and we love them too.  I am so lucky to have her to grow old with.  I love you Robin!

Hope you all had a good day, say a prayer for Art, Kathy,and family.

Until tomorrow,

Darron
RandD > 2008.08.25 (Mon) - Typical Monday.  Robin is back to work this week, starting with a graveyard.  She was sleeping when I got home, I tried not to wake her but...  Well, we watched the rest of the movie we started the other day, then took off for a drive together.  

We headed west from our home and stopped to grab this shot.  Here are some more from tonight.

Until tomorrow,

Darron
RandD > 2008.08.23 (Sat) - Lazy day, slept in, watched some TV and read for a bit.  Got caught up on the dailies.  Wow, there are so many talented photogaphers in this community!  Anyone know where I can find the tutorial for making the "small worlds"?  

Took a nap, then Bri came over.  Ran B and Bri to the movies, then later we dropped them off at Strikes so they could go bowling.  On the way back the sun was going down and we decided to go shoot the new Justice Center in Roseville.  Of the shots I took, this was my favorite.

Until tomorrow,

Darron
RandD > 2008.07.28 (Mon) - Psalm 19:1 "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands."

I rode into work today, it felt good.  It was nice and cool all the way in.  The ride home was a bit warm but not too bad.  We had Peyton for a while, I helped Robin cook dinner and Kayla arrived in time for dinner.  We all hung out and enjoyed being together.  I ran off to a my Monday night study.

On the way home the sunset looked so beautiful and I parked, grabbed the tripod and ran to the top of a hilltop to grab this shot, I then returned to my family.  They were watching the end of a dance movie and Peyton started dancing to the credits, it was a beautiful end to a beautiful evening.
