Saturday, June 12th, 2010

Each month on the twelfth, I photograph my day. I then select 12 photographs that represent my day. This project was conceived by Chad Darnell. It’s taken on a life of its own over the years. Enjoy . . . and better yet, participate next month.

11:27 a.m.

Glasstown Plaza Art

I strolled through Glasstown Plaza enjoying the sights. Liz’s mural is showing its age . . .

12:42 p.m.

Liz Nicklus & Carl Johnson

Liz and Carl had their Outrageous Art Sale today. Here they are posing with the two pieces I purchased. Both are from East Point. The one Carl painted was what he was working on when I took this photograph.

12:08 p.m.

1960 Ford Galaxie 500 Police Cruiser

Needed to pick up something at the mall. There was a police and fire display in the main square. This 1960 Ford Galaxie 500 was on display. Very kewl! Of course, the bit of irony is that this is the exact location of the run-in with the mall rent-a-cops the last time I attempted to take a photograph here. Somehow the real police had no issue . . .

12:28 p.m.

Boscov's Tent

The mall was busy today. As such, I parked an aisle or two further away than I usually do. Somehow I didn’t notice the humongous tent that was nearby. I spotted it returning to the Jeep. I went in. Bosov’s is having a sale. I ended up purchasing a meat cleaver. I saw Bunny there.

12:51 p.m.

Millville Wayfinding Sign

I am intrigued by Millville’s wayfinding signs. I have the master document. Someday I will do the tour . . .

13:58 p.m.

Sprinkler Head

We have had ongoing sprinkler problems. It has been so bad, we haven’t used the sprinkler. We thought it was electrical; it turns out we had a bad valve. A little other maintenance and things were back to normal. The front lawn is much appreciative!

16:09 p.m.

Hydrangea

Beetle’s Hydrangea is flourishing!

18:16 p.m.

Ice Hockey

Nothing says June than ice hockey in Jersey. :) We attended an event at Canlan Ice Sports and saw this wonderful hockey game.

18:52 p.m.

Climbing Up

In the other ice rink were numerous gigantic bouncies, slides, and other inflatables. Beetle had a wonderful time at her friend’s birthday party.

19:27 p.m.

Palace of Depression

On our way home, Beetle and I popped into the restoration of the Palace of Depression. We were greeted with a guided tour. They are really coming along. This is going to be awesome!

20:12 p.m.

Beetle Makes a Wish

Back to Glasstown Plaza, this time with Beetle. She tossed a penny into the fountain and made a wish. Her wish morphed from being able to marry anyone she wanted (when it is time) to getting everything she wants. I modified that to “for the rest of the day”, which was coming to an end.

20:39 p.m.

Father-Daughter Time

Beetle and I were having so much fun we bopped out to Custard Corral for a couple chocolate malteds. We have never seen this place so packed. Parking was difficult. We saw lots of Beetle’s friends there.

Today was a wonderful day! Thanks for enjoying it with me.

Water Tower

Dressed Water TowerWhile we drove by we thought this was a decorated water tower.  When we came back through, we decided it was just draped to be painted.  Nevertheless, we had a good chuckle.

39.9725 -75.041667

A few years ago Ken showed me this grave. I snapped some photographs of it. One of them I posted to my blog. That image is posted all over the ‘Net as people link to it for all sorts of things. It is one of three images that is often hijacked from eCache.

Anyhow, I never got a shot with the GPS in view so I returned today on the Blitzkrieg.

R.I.P.
