Today i was lucky enough to see the retired space shuttle Endeavor do a fly over in Pasadena. It was flying over the Jet Propulsion Lab who brought us the Mars Rover Curiosity last month. I thought that i would just be seeing the bottom of a 747 which i can see just about every day. I actually was able to see the shuttle riding piggy back followed by 2 fighter jets.
In other news they are naming the intersection by the Central Library after Ray Bradbury.
Just in case you wondered if living in LA is amazing, it is.

Updates
This is the first post on my ipad. The delay in posting was because i wasn't exactly sure how to post photos. I didn't want to restage photos with the ipad when i had so many great photos already.
It is still a work in progress since i am still figuring this out.
LA has been hot. Just when i am figuring out the seasons, i get surprised. Usually we have a week or 2 of 90 degree temperatures. This year it has been a month. I have been eating a lot of model dinners, which is what we call eating Pinkberry for dinner. I wish i could have said it helped my waistline.
I have spent a lot of the last month trying to figure out ways to keep cool. A neighbor and i discovered a korean movie theater a few blocks away. It has 3 screens and plays at least one hollywood blockbuster with korean subtitles. Somehow Bourne Legacy seemed more interesting. This place has some pretty interesting concession snacks.
I hope to post more often. It is nice to post in bed before i go to sleep. I can speak my blog to the ipad and it will type it out, i'll have to give it a try.

New tech
Dear all,
I am writing to you via my new iPad. I have had it for less than 24 hours and am having a lot of fun playing with it. Happily a lot of things have translated to this new gadget of mine, except for my photos which are safely on a hard drive I backed up the day before my computer died. I did however lose my contacts. Could you please email me your mailing addresses and email addresses to my gmail account at eyemheer2@gmail.com

technical difficulities
I am sneaking in this post because my computer, after 6 + years has died. Although I am still cooking up posts in my head, there will be a while before I post again until I can get my computer situation figured out.
Hold tight.
