May 2009 12 of 12 - One More Day in the Life...

Credit for the 12 of 12 goes to Chad Darnell of course.

Nothing spectacular was going on this month, just another day of working and living. Found myself kind of busy through much of my work day, so I didn’t take many photos between mid morning and late afternoon. I was busy making some drawings for a project we are trying to push through as quick as we can. I’m starting to get settled in at work, but nothing ever goes 100% as planned. That’s just typical of everyone’s working life I suppose.

So here’s my 12…


3:36 am - Upper Darby, PA

The Moon was screaming so bright this morning it woke me up. So I finally got up a half hour early and took this shot.
5:08 am -City Line Ave, Philadelphia, PA

This is my morning commute... not much traffic, but plenty of lights.
6:58 am - Roxborough Section of Philadelphia

Here's a little conflict of purpose... a golf course along side a busy thoroughfare. Of course most of the city courses have to deal with noise from traffic to a certain extent.
7:09 am - Roxborough

Here's my creature feature for this month.
7:28 am - Roxborough

Here's one of my crew cutting a fairway in the morning dew.
7:47 am - Maintenance Barn

The Daily Grind... Here's my Equipment Tech grinding a bedknife for one of our greens mower units. Much of his day is spent either adjusting or sharpening the mowers.
3:49 pm - Roxborough

Okay, so it's a double creature feature. He (or she) was still going from limb to limb looking for a meal or two. If you ever want to find a dying tree just listen for the rapping of a wood pecker.
5:17 pm - City Line Ave

A little more traffic on the evening commute. 12 to 15 minute morning drive turns into a 35 to 50 minute ride home at this time of day.
5:29 pm - City Line Ave

At least I can enjoy the scenery on my afternoon commute.
5:50 pm - Drexel Hill, PA

I have to stop at my bank to get some money. The bar I'm going to doesn't except cards, so it's cash or wash the dishes.


7:20 pm - Morton, PA

Ahhhh... nothing like a nice pint of beer. This is my second, hmmm... maybe my third, but I was so hungry I forgot to take a photo of my dinner before I ate it all.
7:48 pm - Morton, PA

Here's Victor my bartender manning his station. His attention was diverted by the the TV as the Phillies got another hit on their way to beating the Dodgers.





















Well that's all for this month. Kind of boring, but maybe I'll have something of more interest next month. Remember, if you want to see exactly where I took each shot the GPS data is embedded in the EXIF. (The GPS data maybe missing or inaccurate for some of the indoor shots)
