12 of 12 May

Here is May 2008's 12 of 12. We now have the technical difficulties worked out. For those of you new to 12 of 12, it is the coolest project out there, started by Chad Darnell. Check out his blog site for details. You take 12 photos of anything in your day on the 12th of each month.

Let the month of May begin:

Good morning. Taken at sunrise, about 5:35 am Elverta CA.


"Damn, is it the 12th again. OK, Mom, take my photo quickly before I run off."

Boy, who still won't come in the house, but is doing better on the scaredy-cat issues.

Elverta CA 5:40am

My office. 7:20am, before the day has a chance to unorganize it. Mondays are always manic. Vacaville CA.

Elverta Market, Elverta CA 6pm. The best place in northern California to buy meat.

My attempt to take a photo of my new camera. Guess I should have at least smiled.

Elverta Road, Elverta CA 6:05pm

The citrus grove. Just planted this summer's squash, rosemary and mint.

Luke and BJ, Yes, the building in the background is my next door neighbor.

Elverta CA 7:00 pm.

Grapes. Now the question is, will we get to eat any of them before the birds discover them? Hasn't happened yet, unless you like kind of tart grapes. Elverta CA 7:15pm

Rose. Elverta CA 7:20 pm

Ruben. Yea, he is still around. Likes to pester Luke. Elverta CA 7:30 pm.

And we will end as we began with the sun. Elverta CA 7:55pm
