You know that feeling, when you've eaten too much and need to sleep?

Mine are the green toes. You can tell because my skin is the most pale.
My mother is the foot in a sock. She doesn't like pedicures but we didn't want to leave her out.

My latest thought on life!...We always keep planning about the future, instead of enjoying the present. So isn't our life a huge post-it note?...

I was approached by a film company because they wanted to use my Delica while shooting a short film set in the near future.
They asked me to make it look as 'Post Apocalyptic' as possible. I did my best!
Fliming took place in South London on an abandoned/dereclict housing estate. A massive place with 2000+ apartments all empty. Quite eery!
I took these shots just after filming had finished and the crew had gone home. It made for a nice setting.

The Arkansas Post National Memorial, in southern Arkansas.
A lot of history has taken place at Arkansas Post, which was established by the French way back in 1686 (which makes it the oldest European settlement west of the Mississippi River). The post was an isolated and lonely place, and it never had a large population. In 1723, the Inspector-General of the colony visited the post to find only 17 Frenchmen living there. In 1763, the post and surrounding land were given to Spain at the end of the French and Indian War. A census taken that year showed that only 31 people lived at the post.
One of the last battles of the Revolutionary War occurred at Arkansas Post, when British loyalists attacked the fort. Spain was an ally of the Americans, and the Spanish forces successfully defended the fort from attack. By 1798, the population there had risen to nearly 400. And in 1800, Arkansas Post and all of colonial Louisiana became the property of Napoleon’s France. The period of French rule was short-lived, as the U.S. government got all the land as part of the Louisiana Purchase.
Arkansas Post remained a small and isolated town up until 1819, when it became the capitol of the new Arkansas Territory. The population here grew to over a thousand people, and several new buildings were constructed. That was again also short-lived, when the territorial capitol was moved to Little Rock in 1821. The town of Arkansas Post declined after this, only to see a lot of activity during the Civil War. A fort was constructed next to the town, which was attacked by Union troops in 1863. The battle destroyed the fort and most of the civilian buildings of Arkansas Post. In the decades after the war, the Arkansas River claimed the ruins of the civil war fort, and the town was moved a few miles upstream. By then all of the historic buildings were gone, lost to time or the waters of the river.
For all the history that has occurred in and around Arkansas Post, there really isn't much to see at the park. The visitor center sits near the plot of Arkansas Post back in the time when it was the territorial capitol. But it takes a lot of imagination to see what the town was like back in those days. The only remains are a few pieces of foundation, and an old cistern. Sidewalks criss-cross the park, following the path of roads in the old town.
today's bikeventure- downtown post office to drop off this box (usually i'm sprinting down queen emma street but i was worrried about the big box... i never rode so slow down that hill before, lol). found out it was going to cost me $42!!! even though it only weighed 5lbs. biked it back up the hill (slowly again!) cut the box down as small as possible, retaped, and then biked slowly again back to the p.o. and it cost me $12. :) then i scooted across the street to the downtown library and picked up a dvd, Ultraviolet. i also returned another dvd (Aeon Flux) while i was there and would just like to note that one of the great joys of life is being hot from biking and then opening the book drop and feeling the air conditioning from inside. it is the loveliest feeling. :)
and then i biked uphill, home, and had an ice cold coca cola. the end.

In the mountains, even in June, it gets cold pretty fast once the sun goes down around 8pm. If you want to extend your time outdoors, snuggling in a zero degree duck down sleeping bag is a good solution.
I enjoy both dawn and dusk in terms of observing wildlife and also just witnessing the majestic light transformation from night to day or vice versa.
The plan for the new van is to build an observation/sleeping deck on the roof, accessible by a boat hatch directly above the bed. The view from there should be impressive, especially in the desert.
In a debate with Jean-Claude Juncker on Tuesday morning, MEPs took stock of the work and achievements of the outgoing Commission.
Mr Juncker reflected on progress in the Commission’s priority areas, including growth, jobs and investment, giving a new impetus to Europe and engagement with citizens, the focus on big issues and cuts to the number of new proposals.
He expressed disappointment that the banking union was not concluded – which he sees as key to fighting future crises - but listed successes such as the pillar of social rights and posted workers rules as important steps in providing dignity to workers.
Relations with Africa and 15 new trade agreements were mentioned, among others, as successes. To him, however, the biggest success is that peace has been maintained in Europe. He called on MEPs to keep up the fight for Europe and against “stupid” nationalism.

Surgery #2:
To resolve breathing issues due to a paralyzed right diaphragm causing a collapse of the right lung.
Post surgery #2:
Not only is he looking better, he's much calmer and can breath much easier. Doesn't need the face mask to blow oxygen into his lungs and both lungs can now work in unison.
Surgical story:
Once the surgery was complete, the anesthesiologist was removing the breathing tube inserted down his nose. Even under the anesthesia, the Dr.'s said he was still feisty and even tried pulling out the breathing tube himself.
He's our little fighter. :)
