Jan12: Tree-Lined Street

jan12

Jan12, 2012. It was not a really long and busy day today but both the hubby and I agreed we feel more tired than usual. Still there are many things to be grateful for today like…

* an order of 50% sugar and less ice pearl milktea ;-)

* being able to go home early and without difficulties

* a possible good role for the son for their drama club’s play in March

* the eldest child selected to dance the Cotillion for their prom (mygaz i still cant believe it. The prom!)

* trees that are still here giving shade and making the world look nicer. (if only SM in Baguio City will respect the trees there then it would even be nicer)

I still have some tasks to do and after that Sherlock’s The Hounds of Baskerville can finally be watched. I hope I will finish this and not sleep on it like last night.

I hope I can dream about how good it will be in 2050 :)

Traffic

Ushering in the BER months mean traffic, traffic and more traffic as people flock to malls like moths attracted to a burning candle.

I’m sure a lot of responsible car-owners have started doing tune-ups with their cars to avoid any
inconveniences because I’m seeing car lifts that are full in auto service centers during weekends.

As for us, our ride needs tuning up, a new set of wheels, a re-painting job and a whole lot more of that what-not.

Kaching-kaching.

Fire Tree

If we don’t have digital cameras, we wouldn’t be able to take as many photos as we want to. Everything we see will just remain in our mind (which is also good for it will make us be more creative in describing what we saw to others).

There are times when my camera is like an extension of my hand. If you are the type who takes photos of almost everything, you’d understand what I mean.

Here is a Fire Tree, captured in pixels and shared to those who will land on this page (and its Flickr page). I would probably find it hard to describe how it looked like when I saw it but this photo shows how beautiful the tree is.

Dusty When It’s Windy

Summer is here and that means we get to see a lot of brown outdoors: dried leaves, dried grass, and dust.

Zambales during Summer

On this same road though not in this area but from where this bridge used to be, we have encountered a “sand storm” where strong winds blew off the sand from the dry river. These are not actually sands from the river bed but from dried lahar (or mud flow from a volcano).

I’d rather it is hot with some rain showers than have a lot of rains which cause flooding. Of course, the hot weather means crops die too but too much rain causes more damage to people and properties than just dying crops.
