Moved to Salem, Massachusetts 2 years ago.


I take at least one picture a day.
Why not share my pictures along with
a narrative about each photo EVERYDAY!

(another stop along the Freedom Trail)

Boston's Bunker Hill Monument in Charlestown,MA

Bunker Hill Monument

For the Labor Day weekend we decided to check out the start of the Freedom Trail which is atop Breed's Hill. The 294 steps to the top found us resting a few times to catch our breath. Once on top the views were far-reaching.

Another web site on the way....

Supermarket over the turnpike?


Shaws over Mass 90 Turnpike

Shaws supermarket is like the west-coast equivalent of Vons or Ralphs. Although more expensive than Market Basket they do carry items other stores do not. Like the extra churned version of Country Crock margarine... only found at Shaws. For staple items like bread, milk and eggs Market Basket rules and you can always spot a bargain elsewhere throughout the isles. I drive under this Shaws everyday on my way out to Westborough.

But here is something you will not see in Salem supermarkets:

Beer Isle in New Hampshire
That's right! No alcohol is sold in Salem supermarkets. You have to drive to a special Beer and Liquor store for these forsaken pleasures. We have even driven to New Hampshire to buy beer where there is no sales tax, but they get you at the border toll roads as you enter and leave the state. New Hampshire - Live Free or Die!

All the food!!!!

New way to view the Virtual Earth


Highland Condos in Salem Massachusetts


Although I just started this new job we are at end of month so we have no computers to refresh. So we sit around and surf the web! One of the techies told me about this mapping site. Click on the picture to check it out! This is really awesome! X marks the spot we live at in Salem. Notice we are right up against a forest.

Check out where I grew up here in Yorba Linda, CA. You can count the cars and trailer in the driveway!

This calls for another website!!

The new job is working out great!


Aside from the drive the new job is right up my professional alley. CompuCom is a well respected company in the area handling many jobs in Boston and its outer townships. Everyday I pass Fenway Park going through Boston...

The office I work in consists of 4 other technicians. If we install 2 new computer refreshes per day we will keep up with the PCs in use as their leases expire. Some clients have two PCs!!

Can't Stay Up Late to watch Conan O'Brian



No more staying up late and waking at 5:00am!!! Sorry Conan.
I recorded this with my camera last week.

It's not so much the workload as it is the drive that is quickly wearing me out.
Today I installed a new PC in a different office only 10 miles from Salem!
