Day 2315 - Bryan Adams "Reckless" - 09.22.17

This morning I woke up with "Cuts Like a Knife" in my head.  Now I don't have that album on vinyl.  I should have is somewhere in a box of tapes, but those are packed away in the garage.  So instead I picked Reckless off the shelf and took this photo.  This is something I saw today.

The Blu-Ray for Wonder Woman came out this past weekend.  My wife pre-ordered it so we got it on the day of release.  This was one of my favorite movies this year.  I saw it twice in the theater.  Can't wait to watch it again.  This is something I saw today.

Day 2301 - Jan David "Flamenco Funk" - 09.08.17

This morning I looked in the easy listening section of my records for something different.  I came across this record which I picked up in the last year or two.  It made me think that I need to listen to this record again this weekend.  I remember it being pretty good.  Well this morning I just photographed it.  This is something I saw today.

Day 2299 - Mix Tape 3 Easter 2000 - 09.06.17

I have some old mix tapes on a shelf in my record room.  I thought I'd photograph one today to remember the old days of mix tapes, which are seeing a little bit of a resurgence.  I like mix tapes or mix CD's because they are a great time capsule of what you were listening to during a certain period.  In 2000 I made a series of mix tapes for Easter.  I think I made these for a road trip.  As is my usual pattern the selections are eclectic.  This is something I saw today.

Day 2298 - The Rolling Stones "Blue & Lonesome" - 09.05.17

I fell in love with this record last year when I first heard it.  I wanted to buy it on vinyl, but the price has kept me from buying it.  I runs 35-40 dollars most places, which to me is insane because it actually isn't that much music.  I couldn't justify the cost.  This weekend we went to Pasadena to walk around and look in the shops along Colorado.  I found this record in Urban Outfitters along with the latest Cold War Kids record.  This record was marked down to $24 because the shrink wrap had been ripped.  They had another copy that was unopened for the insanely high price.  To make matters even better was that there was a Labor Day weekend sale, which took off another 30% off of sale items, so I got this record for 17 bucks.  Now that is a price I could live with.  So that is my "Blue & Lonesome" story.  This is something I saw today.

Day 2297 - No Swimming Sign - 09.04.17

For Labor day we went to Manhattan Beach.  The day was perfect because it was pretty much overcast for most of the day.  We got there early and stayed until early afternoon.  Mid morning a lifeguard put up No Swimming signs.  I am not exactly sure why, but I think it had something to do with currents or undertow.  Of course there were silly people still going in the water.  Didn't affect me because I wasn't going in.  my wife and I just sat on the beach under our umbrellas reading and relaxing.  My daughter and her friends were in the water until these signs went up and then they went and checked out the shops nearby.  It was a good day for all.  This is something I saw today.

Day 2296 - Burbank On Fire - 09.03.17

This weekend the Burbank mountains have been on fire.  Apparently this is the biggest fire in LA County history.  I snapped this photo this morning while in the car.  This is something I saw today.

Day 2295 - Yard Light - 09.02.17

Day 2294 - But Not The Dalek - 09.01.17

I have featured a bunch of these books by Charles Thurston in the past as a group, but not individually.  This is something I saw today.
