September Approaches!

So…

What has happened since I blogged last? Well, one of Tempetown Lake’s dams broke. I posted some pics a couple of years ago, of some buildings across this manmade monstrosity. Now, you get to see some pics after the water went “bye bye”…

Needless to say, this place SMELLS now. You’ve heard of EYESORES, well, this is a NOSESORE. I have to go by this every day. Almost as bad as the garbage dump, also on the way to work.

I went on a super secret, sonic bonic, L.A. trip, back in July.

Take a GOOD LOOK at what I found at the Airport (And PHOENIX SKY HARBOR, Not LAX!)…

My favorite issue of my favorite magazine – Monocle! Tokyo, like I mentioned in my last blog, went down to #3 on the most liveable list. Phoenix was nowhere. BTW, L.A. and NYC were not on the lists either.

I went to the Original Bob’s Big Boy, restaurant, with my Tokyo friend, Mr. Tamura. On the NEXT Tokyo trip, a trip to one of THEIR Big Boy restaurants is a MUST! Has to happen – WILL HAPPEN!! End of FRICKING story…

Well, here is a pic of the original BIG BOY, himself! As you can see, the creepy kid stares at you INSIDE the place, as well as eyeballs, outside, as you go into the place…

Well, ahem…What can I say? I was HUNGRY. That burger was INHALED before I could bring EL GRANDE NIKON into position. Damn…Anyway, I did get some of the outside of the place when we left…

Here are some jovial people who converged on the Goldman residence. To the LEFT of this the camera, was the view you see in the right pic.

We also went to the Tibet Nepal House, in Pasadena, which has real good cuisine. I didn’t bring the big camera, so I had to use the camera on my mobile to catch these pics (Didn’t get pics of the exterior, gomen nasai…).

They really made you feel like you were in the Himalayas, including the Lhasa Beer. However, this food was GREAT, beer or not!

The “Mystery Meat” is in the center. I will let YOU guess that one. I LOVED EVERY BITE, like I was back in NEPAL…

Needless to say, the vacation balance will be reset in September, and this time around, I am budgeting several things – Investment funds, which I want to use for incorporation and moving fees, and another major trip. I smell TOKYO again…

Here are some more of those Tokyo pics that didn’t make the blogs…
