Some mornings call for extended flake-out time when I sit down at my desk. Today was thus.
Song of the Day: Idaho - BoDeans
Chili Cook-Off + Bluegrass Festival + Exceptional Autumn Weather + Back-in-the-day-friends back in the A for the weekend = Perfect Saturday.
Song of the Day: Bright Sunny South - Allison Krauss and Union Station
Fall is still happening and I can't get enough of it.
Song of the Day: Real Enough For Me - The Mockers
Commiserating the first work day after the end of Daylight Savings Time.
Song of the Day: The House We Grew Up In - The Weeks
At a site visit up in Adairsville this afternoon, I forced myself to look at the thing and not the color of the leaves on the trees or whatever nonsense has been distracting me lately. This is the second factory that we have designed and rebuilt after being destroyed by a tornado this year. There is a satisfaction in helping to put men back to work that I can't quite describe.
Song of the Day: Slave To The Grind - Skid Row
I always love this time of year, until I realize that I'm going to be driving home in the dark until Spring breaks.
Song of the Day: Nothing For You - T.S.O.L.
We competed in Canstruction with some of our engineering buddies tonight down at Colony Square. It's a cool thing I think, for us to recreate a few of the most iconic buildings of the ATL skyline via the unpredictable media that is canned food. Plus the cans are donated to the Atlanta Food Bank at the end of the event.
Song of the Day: Jet City Woman - Queensryche
The firm visited a small, local pre-cast concrete shop at lunch today. Interesting process, cool people but I became fixated on the workbench. I covet that.
Song of the Day: Fatlip - Sum 41
What happy looks like.
Song of the Day: Lump - The Presidents Of The United States Of America
I landed at Hobby and arrived at the rental lot just in time to bear witness to a wonderful sunset.
Song of the Day: Bittersweet Heart - Soul Asylum
Final walked a two site Texas project today – Woodville and Port Arthur. The client is a German company that harvests pine trees and turns them into pellets for heating fuel at the facility in Woodville; stockpiles and ships them to Europe out of Port Arthur. I was admittedly more interested in the port than I was the project. I like big ass ships.
Song of the Day: Simple Man - Junkyard
The post-apocalyptic beauty of a Houston oil refinery.
Song of the Day: Up Jumped The Devil - Izzy Stradlin
First frost.
Song of the Day: Hallelujah - Ryan Adams
I final walked one of our projects in Tuscaloosa this morning. It's a factory for another German client. This one manufactures exhaust systems for Mercedes Benz. It's a successful facility and will add a little punch to our manufacturing portfolio.
Song of the Day: Personality Crisis - New York Dolls
After our fall retreat, the firm went to the Marietta Museum of History this afternoon. Down with history as I am, I was stoked. Interesting fact: the majority of Andrew's Raiders lodged here the night before they stole The General back in the day. Sweet.
Song of the Day: Demon Host - Timber Timbre
Patiently waiting and watching.
Song of the Day: I Buried A Bone - Blind Pilot
I paused for a moment this morning...before they all fall down.
Song of the Day: Moon In The Water - Dawes
It's a new beautiful ridiculous Monday morning...let's kick this mule.
Song of the Day: Paralyzer - Finger Eleven
Crappy pic of an epic sunset.
Song of the Day: Barbary Blues - Nicki Bluhm and The Gramblers
I had my first site visit to a recycling center that we designed down in Montgomery today. She's got good bones, no? A decidedly Southern lunch at a fish shack on the banks of the Alabama River after was an unexpected bonus.
Song of the Day: Out Of My League - Fitz And The Tantrums
It was a cloudy depressing morning until I saw these wonderful fiery ladies marching along MLK.
Song of the Day: When I Fall - Steve Earle
The little cactus blooming in the kitchen window this morning reminded me (yet again) how important it is to always be aware of the hidden silver lining.
Song of the Day: Miss Williams' Guitar - The Jayhawks
Color.
Song of the Day: Electric Worry - Clutch
Post first-time-at-church-in-forever lunch. It was a good day.
Song of the Day: God's Gonna Cut You Down - Johnny Cash
I'm as conscious of the passing of seasons this year as I may ever have been. I dig that.
Song of the Day: Tower Of Song - Leonard Cohen
Perfect, lazy, rainy day with my dog and a book.
Song of the Day: Rainy Day Women No. 12 & 35 - Bob Dylan
Belle reluctantly assumed Maynard's vacated co-pilot duties this morning for the Thanksgiving trip to Mississippi. I gave her a fancy new pink coat for her efforts, so she was cool – looks like a superhero, no? It was the first time we'd traveled as a family since he passed so we listened to little man's favorites for a bunch of miles out of respect.
Song of the Day: Don't Stop Me Now - Queen
Thanksgiving morning post-breakfast walk around. Food. Family. Football. Repeat.
Song of the Day: I Got A Name - Jim Croce
Somewhere in Mississippi.
Song of the Day: Seven Months, Thirty-Nine Days - Hank Williams III
Backdoor sunset.
Song of the Day: 7 O'Clock - London Quireboys
