Day 873 - Boo Berry - 10.10.13

Day 871 - Fruity Yummy Mummy Target Exclusive Retro Package - 10.08.13

Today I discovered that this year Target is carrying Monster Cereals and even better, they have exclusive retro packaging.  So after work I drove over and picked up 4 of the 5 kinds that there are.  I got Count Chocula, Frankenberry, Boo Berry and Fruity Yummy Mummy.  The 5th kind of cereal that they did not have in stock is Fruit Brute which is werewolf themed.  I'll be going back regularly in hopes that they get some in stock.  I actually talked to the manager who said that they should get some in stock.  I hope he didn't lie.  Well Yummy Mummy has not been on the market since 1993, so this is pretty cool.  Fruit Brute hasn't been around since 1984.  Interesting stuff.  So I bought my cereals and brought them home to discover that my wife also went to Target and picked up the four cereals as well.  So we're stocked up.  So this retro box of cereal was something I saw today.

Day 870 - Northwest Park Plaque - 10.07.13

This evening after work I swung by Northwest Park near my house.  I parked in the first open parking space, which was right next to this plaque.  So I took this photo and did not have to wander through the park looking for a photo.  It was something I saw today.

Day 869 - No Empathy "Freedom Of Flesh" - 10.06.13

Today I was at the Pasadena City College flea market and I found a record by No Empathy.  This was a band from Chicago from back in the day.  The drummer Kurt was a good skateboard friend and a member of Team SAP.  Steve Gallup who played bass went to school with me and hung around the same circle of friends.  I saw these guys many times as a kid.  It was very cool finding this record, which I didn't own.  So I bought it and brought it home for this photo.  It was something I saw today.

Day 867 - The Time Lord - 10.04.13

This church on the corner or Clark and Buena Vista usually has a good sense of humor when it comes to their signs.  Given my love of Doctor Who I could not pass up stopping and taking a snap of this week's sign.  It should be noted that the same church has a funny video on YouTube.  Check it out here.  They also had a rather entertaining service on Oscar Sunday that shouldn't be missed.  You can see that here. So this was something I saw today.

Day 859 - Morning Sky - 09.26.13

This morning there were some very cool clouds out as the sun came up.  I love when there are clouds because they can catch that beautiful morning light and reflect it down to me.  When there aren't any clouds there is nothing to catch the light.  So these clouds were something I saw today.

This is my daughter before school this morning.  You'll notice the gap in her front teeth that wasn't there 4 weeks ago.  She has been wearing a palette spreader to get her mouth ready to put on some braces.  We thought we should take a photo to document the gap since it will soon disappear.  It was something I saw today.
