Scalzi's Photo Assignment.



    I know it's not often that I do John Scalzi's various assignments all that much these days.  Life being what it is and all, sometimes it's just tough to set aside the time, and, quite frankly, these days, this somewhat challenged mind of mine is usually spinning off in entirely different directions.  But, this week, I thought I'd take part because: A) my mind is kind of rumbling in idle at the moment, and B) I remembered that I actually had a picture that I took a while back that fit with this week's theme of floaty things.

    So, here's a photo
of some buoyant subject matter I snapped a couple of years back after finishing a monster road trip driving on The Lincoln Highway from Ocean City, MD to San Francisco, CA.  Unfortunately, I don't think hwy. 50 runs into San Fran since I sort of lost it somewhere around Sacramento.  But, since I have a bunch of cousins living in Sacramento, I figured that I'd much rather end my trip in San Fran.  So, I declared that it ends there...  At The Warf...  With a flat tire on my Jeep and a bowl of chowder.  Yum. 

    Anyway, I think I can only spot three things floating in this picture, but if you find more, let me know.

  2. I see two floating balloons . . . where is the third?

    Am I going blind?
                        Oh my gosh, I'm only 21 and I can't see . . .

    I knew staring at your rock hard abs would burn my retnas. Damn it.

    Great shot.  Looks like the little guy was having a blast.  Wouldn't it be nice if we could be that carefree again sometimes?  :)

  4. nice photo. I looked around my house for "floaty things" but all I could find was what my boy...well, let's just say he often forgets to flush the toilet in the morning. His floaty things aren't very photogenic. Darn kid.

  9. Mea Culpa Amanda.  If it helps, Scalzi missed the big, freakin' boat as well.
