Rise of the machines



Now for those of you who care, or just dont know.

I work for an architectural firm by day, yes a big boy in a corporate world. Very odd, sometimes I question myself, ha ha. No kidding. So one of my projects is dealing with Barloworld Equipment. The giant caterpillar trucks that you see, yes those. They make those.

Apparently one of the mines ordered 8 big Cat Machines, each in the region on 7-9 Million.

What Am I doing, hmmm, well hopefully trying t improve things.

Here are some images.

More will follow!

Moving, Cause thats what friends do, they help



Finally, ah finally Clem gets a girlfriend.

Kidding, now he did take a massive giant leap and moved in with his lovely lady.

They have a killer spot in an old apartment block, character baby, character.

There shall be many a night spent staring into the neighboring balconies.

Ha ha, congrats man!

Morning Mourning



So after the Matric Dance we went to a friends Birthday. They have an amazing house, with a crazy view. The next morning I tool these images. The second has such a polaroid feel, quite interesting.

Well I say Mourning, because there is a certain time frame for how long it will be around.

Crisis I'm not 18 anymore



We can all remember the time in school, waiting aching, for our time. The longing for more, the ideas of freedom, ideas we didnt even fully understand. Everything was one dimensional, what you saw, is what you believed, argued and fought for. Life moves on and as time moves to your side of the argument, you start to realize how simple most people were in school, but better yet how simple you may have been.

No saying that it was lack luster, just saying I'm feeling old okay.

Anyways, so Michelle, my girlfriends younger sister had her Matric Dance. Yes, I know, we all had super bad memories of this night. So she took Ninja Steve as here date, and then after all the photo's asked if I could take here in my pimping ride.

Now for those of you that know Lola ( My dirty dirty little citi golf) You know that it's just not that pimping - ha ha and here lay the sweet irony.

Well at least the kids had a sense of humour.

The trip home




Ah, man it's been so long since a post, but it always brings about some joy. Whne you look back on imported images, and smile. So the following posts are late, but important none the less.

From the Kruger/Hazeyview we went via Long Tom pass, a scenic route, ah man, I cant explain how I enjoy driving in the open. It was the perfect end to a long weekend!

Kruger Park



I went to the Kruger Park last week to go see my Dad. Happiest weekend in ages. So part of the trip was venturing into the 'wild" and scouting for animals. We spent most of the day sifting through golden wilderness, mused and content, yet with not much in the way of wildlife. Then, we spotted a Leopard, crouched and on the hunt. Although no blood and gore followed, the Leopard, did show itself in full, amazing. This is a start of many more trips into the peaceful spaces that surround the concrete jungle i choose to live in.
