Thirty-One Days in July

I've actually managed to stay committed to this thing for five months.  I just might see it through for the whole year afterall.  Catch up on this little project of mine at the links below if you're new to the blog.


Monday – 01 July 2013


Today I found a new distraction from my Savannah obligations in the form of the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge.  I'll be cutting meetings short all summer to steal some time around here, I do believe. 


Tuesday – 02 July 2013


Potential.

Song of the Day: Don't Change - INXS 

Wednesday – 03 July 2013


I would love to be a canoe or a leaf or a twig slicing through the fog along the glass surface of the Chattahoochee.  Peaceful morning, but the rain is coming (they say).    

Song of the Day: Small Price - Angel City 

Thursday – 04 July 2013


Nearly constant thunderstorms.  History Channel overdose, golf, baseball, hot dog eating contest on TV.  Naps with the pups.  Pizza.  Cold beer.  Free fireworks display from my pyromaniac neighbors.  Best Fourth of July on record.

Song of the Day: Yankee Rose - David Lee Roth 

Friday – 05 July 2013


Walking Dead marathon 1 – Productivity 0.  It's still raining so I guess I'm okay with that.

Song of the Day: Whatever - Godsmack

Saturday – 06 July 2013


Luckily, I didn't pull what I thought were weeds earlier this spring or I never would have seen these beauties – respite from a stormy afternoon. 


Sunday – 07 July 2013 


Maynard is even sick of all this rain (and he sleeps twenty + hours a day!).  Maybe tomorrow little man.


Monday – 08 July 2013 


Good to see you again old friend.

Song of the Day: Feels So Good - 311

Tuesday – 09 July 2013 


Good sky. 

Song of the Day: Funk #49 - James Gang

Wednesday – 10 July 2013 


Ball time in the tall grass before more rain.


Thursday – 11 July 2013 


The "Hooch was outside its banks at lunch, much to the delight of this gaggle.


Friday – 12 July 2013 


After taking Maynard for his monthly mani/pedi this morning, I noticed this lovely lady in front of Village Garage.  I feel like she would be more comfortable on my block.


Saturday – 13 July 2013 


Speaking of needing a new home!  I covet the Corvair.


Sunday – 14 July 2013 


Pantry Surprise!


Monday – 15 July 2013 


Epic.

Song of the Day: Low Rider - War

Tuesday – 16 July 2013 


Final walked one of our projects down near Hogansville this morning.  Took a detour through Grantville on the way back to check out some sets from The Walking Dead.  Good day.

Song of the Day: Bloodletting - Concrete Blonde 

Wednesday – 17 July 2013 


Flash flood on the west side prior to a networking event at Monday Night Brewing.  Will def go back in good weather  big fan of the Fu Man Brew

Song of the Day: Only Happy When It Rains - Garbage

Thursday – 18 July 2013 


Random ATL.

Song of the Day: Walkin' Shoes - Tora Tora

Friday – 19 July 2013 


Awesome show.  Vernon Reid is still a freaking amazing guitar player.

Song of the Day: Whiskey in the Jar - Metallica 


Saturday – 20 July 2013 


Doc Chey's. Peace. Love. Noodles. (and dumplings!)

Song of the Day: Blueside - Rooney

Sunday – 21 July 2013 


British Open, Sunday paper and a curious pup = a nearly perfect morning.

Song of the Day:  Little Wing - Jimi Hendrix

Monday – 22 July 2013 



In Houston, Texas this afternoon for a site visit tomorrow in Katy. With time to kill, I took a self-guided tour around the back roads of the small towns in the area.  Brookshire has a decided Friday Night Lights feel about it. 

Song of the Day: Ten Boots - Dangerous Toys 

Tuesday – 23 July 2013 


After the site visit, some delicious fish tacos and an unsuccessful negotiation with the local Fire Marshal, I took a minute to take in the rest of the local.  Katy, Texas is not unlike entirely the small town I grew up in.   

Song of the Day: Rain On The Scarecrow - John Mellencamp

Wednesday – 24 July 2013 




I was sure happy to see this crazy face tonight.  She got an extra bath, a rubdown and a fancy pink bandanna for having to endure boarding for a couple of nights – she's special.

Song of the Day: The Underdog - Spoon 

Thursday – 25 July 2013 




Today is Maynard's fourteenth birthday – that's (98) years if you're scoring at home.  Happy Birthday old man!  Tonight he had all the T'Bonz and peanut butter he wanted PLUS smoked his pipe, drank loads of cognac and listened to old jazz records.

Song of the Day: My Favorite Things - John Coltrane

Friday – 26 July 2013 



I was up in Cartersville for a site visit this morning – I love rebar.  

Song of the Day: Heavy Things - Phish

Saturday – 27 July 2013 




A very productive day concluded with my return to the studio.  Full story here.

Song of the Day: Click Click Boom - Saliva

Sunday – 28 July 2013 



Yahtzee!

Song of the Day: Watching The Wheels - John Lennon

Monday – 29 July 2013 



Distraction from the obvious.

Song of the Day: Someday - Cracker 

Tuesday – 30 July 2013 



Maynard came home from the hospital tonight having finally gotten together enough to take the first of his shots.  He's sore and exhausted and pissed off about the big needle and the resultant bald patch but he's okay...still a little anxious though (me too).  The extra treats and morphine make it better for the little guy. 
      
Song of the Day: Handle With Care - Traveling Wilburys 

Wednesday – 31 July 2013 





I find it highly entertaining to witness the chaotic ballet of early morning airport minutia as I choke down a rubber, egg and cheese bagel. It never gets old.  A solid bowl of soup, a productive meeting with the usual suspects and a sprinkle of team building with the standard SAV-ATL delay chaser made for a good day.

Song of the Day: You're Gonna Go Far Kid - The Offspring
