Revved up like a…sorry, I’ll stop. It’s just the first phrase that came to mind when I took this photo the other night. As Jojo and I were leaving the table tennis club a few days ago, (after he beat me 5 matches in a row), we were stopped dead in our tracks by this [...]

Random Post on a Thursday
I am compelled to write this morning, about anything and everything. But I’ll spare you the usual crazy ramblings that rattle around in my head and just stick to the important stuff. The reason I have to say something is because Mayor Sanders and the City Council are moving to drastically reduce the hours at [...]
Return to My Beloved
This manic Monday was a return to some of my beloved passions, which I’ve neglected lately due to a busy shooting/editing schedule. My sunny and 70 degrees morning started out with a relaxing ride on my 2002 Suzuki SV650S. It’s been months since I got to ride, it just made more sense for Jojo to [...]

Yihoo! Jojo took home the second place trophy in the Under 1400 event this weekend at the California State Open. But only after a long, long day waiting around in the Santa Monica College gym. Limited number of tables meant Jojo played his first round at 11:30, then played his second round at about 4:00, [...]
we’re going to kentucky…we’re going to the fair!!!
Just kidding, we’re not really going to Kentucky. But we did go to the San Diego County Fair this past Wednesday, and it was so much fun! Our primary reason for being there was to photograph the San Diego Table Tennis Junior Team, but we had so many more bonus reasons to be there: deep-fried [...]
