We would drive up to Amarillo and visit a spot next to historic Route 60 called Cadillac Ranch.
Cadillac Ranch is an interesting site to see, and even though it was rainy a muddy today. People showed up to fulfill the time honored tradition of covering them in spray paint.
Today was the first SMCLBK meeting. It was a blast, we met at Orlandos on Ave Q and Jacie Hood gave a presentation on how to get the most out of YouTube.
Helped a friend moving today, we got in her car bright and early this morning and drove to Abilene to meet her parents and trade cars.
While in Abilene we went on a mini photo adventure. I would love to show you the photos from said adventure. But, the memory card had an issue; and all the files are corrupt.
So instead, here is a video I shot today while exploring the Museum in Abilene.
My dad has been a good friend of mine for a long time. He taught me how to use the computer, at the time it was a Headstart Explorer.
He took me camping, and even joined Boy Scouts because I wanted to.
I remember a few years ago, my Dad was informed that he was going to become a Grandpa. My family spent the rest of the day trying to decide what my parents would be called. My grandmother was always called Nani and my grandfather was always called Popo; this was a variation on what my great grandparents were called by my parents.
We decided on Nono for my mom, because with all the breakable items in the house we assumed we would hear “No no Keller, don’t touch that” often.
My Dad, however insisted that he wanted to be called “Viejo.” I remember asking him why, and he stated that he wanted it because he was an “old man.” I tried to explain to him, that Keller would likely not be able to pronounce “Viejo” and that it would come out as “ahoe,” which sounds like asshole.
He simply replied, “I can be that also.”
On an unrelated note, here is a video I made from my iPhone after showing off qik to him.
