Dad’s Got New Tech

Dad's Got New Tech
Photo-A-Day #1608

No not me, my Dad has a brand new 8 GB iPod Nano. It is engraved with the Harley Davidson Emblem. Months ago I got a postcard from my Harley-Davidson credit card. A special deal was happening where if you took a test ride on a new Harley you get a free 8GB iPod Nano with a special inscription.

I haven’t been on a bike in a while so instead if riding it myself I gave the postcard to my Dad so he could get a sweet ride on a new Harley as well as the iPod Nano. It finally arrived today and it looks fantastic. I’m a bit jealous. 🙂

Today I went for a little team building session. We went bowling. I didn’t do so well. I bowled an 85. So tough. But after that we went to Phillips Candy House. I got some chocolate covered pretzels for me and some fudge for Allison. There were so many delicious chocolates including these Turtles.

Photo-A-Day #1463

In addition to today’s photo I took a bunch of other nice ones. They are up on Flickr.

Yesterday began year 5 of Photo-A-Day. I’ve taken one photo every day for four straight years. When you look at it in one shot it is a huge number of images. People ask me how I could take so many photos. The only way I could do that would be to do a little at a time.

If you are going to accomplish anything worthwhile it is going to take time, every day little by little. Some days I didn’t have the best photos. Some days I had awesome photos. Some days I didn’t want to take a shot. Some days I would take any old thing just to have a picture. But some days I went out looking for something fantastic to shoot. The point is… each day I did something.

There is a saying that was made into a book by a Bill Hogan: How Do You Eat An Elephant? One Bite At A Time! While I don’t want to necessarily put away a pachyderm I do want to get healthy. So in order to do that I have to do something to become more healthy each day. It could be something as simple as avoiding eating a piece of candy or more complex like a nice long workout.

Is there an Elephant You Want to Eat? If so what is it?
