Making music
ByDerekAmanda and I have been busy the past two weeks or so preparing some music to perform at my Aunt’s wedding Saturday. We’re hoping to be able to record it soon after and put it up here. This should make Chris Byrd very happy, as he’s bugged me several times to write more music and…

Interesting reading
ByDerekI’ve added a category to the navigation on the right called “Interesting Reading.” It’s shaping up to be a collection of websites and blogs that I read on a regular basis and find interesting. Don’t get the wrong impression, though. Just because I put a link up to a site doesn’t mean that I agree…

Count your money
ByDerekContinued from Know when to run Friday came and things were looking up. Other than some caulking and finishing work, we were slated to finish the installation up. First step was, as always, shutting the water off and removing the sink from it’s temporary perch. Since the sink still wasn’t sitting quite right in the…

From all those photographs, the one that struck me (and probably not many others) the most is the one with the bicycles all lined up. The juxtaposition of very modern with the very communist-egalitarian is a hoot. I have a similar photograph from my trip to Shanghai – hundreds upon hundreds of bicycles, all virtually identical, Schwinn-looking, rust-covered, circa 1950s. I never did find out if they were community property or individually owned, but I couldn’t imagine knowing how to tell mine from the others, had I owned one.
I guess you had to be there.

Hooters in China….. I like them more and more all the time.
Have seen many of your photos, but I don’t really remember alot of them not to say that they aren’t good but there are a few here that have really caught my eye — the black and white tree lined pathway is amazing. I also really enjoyed the sunset skyline shot and night lites shot. Very good shots Derek from what looks like an amazing place to visit.
