Photos of The Amgen Tour in Modesto Here!

I Love Modesto!

So I was downtown this morning for The 3rd stage of the Amgen Tour! WOW! How exciting! I’m thinking, half of Modesto must have called in sick today from work. LOL If not, they probably should have or even taken the day off. Today was a very proud day to be a Modesto Citizen. It was so thrilling to see all of these world class cyclists. If you weren’t able to be there yourself, I took some amazing photos of one of Modesto’s Proudest days.
The Sunshine peeked out and the people shined as if they where the warmth of bright Sun in the sky.
Smiles
The silliest part of this morning’s Amgen Tour for me was when I got the MPD Motorcycle division to do the wave. Actually, not all of them did it. But after my photo shot with them, I urged the Captain to make sure that all the fellows Motorcycle seat warmers worked. Hey, it makes for a happier officer and a nicer ride. Smiles.
Keep up the great work MPD. You do an amazing job keeping our streets safe.

Awesome Eclipse Photo!

Hey Efren,

I thought that you and others may enjoy this. This was taken in Halifax, Canada near Nova Scotia. I administer a group on Flickr that use the same digital cam that I use and one of our members took this tonight! The colors are simply amazing.

Commonality Events
  Christine's blog on this  Art walk information.....>


 


Keena and I have shown there.  I got my coffee for the State Theatre Art Walk last month for the Degenerate Art Show, and after doing Commonality at Centre Plaza, asked Christine if she was going to do more stuff at Queen Bean, like maybe talk to Deb and Irene about Art Walk...... well, see Commonality's Blog, they are going to be on the art Walk.    Only around the corner from the State Theatre.   


Remember, you can drink coffee before and after, do try and use the map to get out the garden, go all the way to Clayton's and return..... have more coffee while discussing the art you've seen. 


Artists, Crafters, Call for Artists from the Visually Impaired Persons Support Center, on 14th Street in Modesto, CA across from Act of Kindness (a usual 8 of 12 month Third Thursday Art Walk spot) is holding a fundraiser prior to Mother's Day.



 


I help set this one up, some of my art here, Keena Wells hosts this one while I'm over at the State Theatre with some of his art as well.  www.claytonrestaurant.com.  Next Door is Lost Art Gallery, and design studio of Nevada Silva, also on the Third Thursday Art Walk, so if you go by Clayton's, be sure to stop at Tenth and H at Lost Art.

Very Cool and Sorry

Very Cool! Sorry I didn’t have very much time to chat Jim. I felt like I was everywhere and my biggest goal was to get people to recognize The Survivors and The American Cancer Society Relay for LIFE!
There is Hope! Glad to hear that The Queen of Coffee is getting into the Art Walk! I heard you contacted the Artist I met in Riverbank. She’s a nice lady, hope you all can help each other out with more shows. Thanks so much for your friendship Jim. Have a great day!
