View out of my window at night. First photo shows the monorail, and the entrance to the Luxor. Second one shows the side of Luxor (The Pyramid) and the city. Third is the same as the first, only during the day.





Waking up in Vegas.

Vegas Photos

Some new photos from the past couple days. There is a lot of them, only going to post a few now. I'll post a few more later.

15 second exposure of Las Vegas Blvd at about 5:30PM (It gets dark at like 4:45pm here).

At the monorail station.

You can't walk 30ft without someone trying to hand you cards/coupons/flyers/etc for strip clubs, escorts, etc. There were only two of these people on this corner.

Part of the new City Center, amazing architecture made for nice photos.

Different angle, shot in b+w. Really enjoyed this area.

Moments before being told I wasn't allowed to take photos of the tables by security.

Some dude offering free pictures with his birds.

Eiffel Tower

Paris and traffic. Yeah, 7 lanes going both directions.

Some new City Center buildings.





Thats all for now, i'll add more later.

Update

No photos this time, will try to get some more soon.

I've currently been working on developing a new website, PomsToYou.com where we can ship our Pomegranates and Pomegranate Products directly to customers, anywhere in the United States. Its still being developed but check it from time to time and see the progress. No products will be listed until next Fall, but trying to get it finished, with all the kinks worked out in the ordering system before it is launched.

Lot of birds here now, countless number of ducks with a steady number of Geese coming in daily. Been feeding twice daily now, they consume a whole lot of food.

Garden is ready for planting when the time comes. Going to section it off in two, so we can grow only two items in bulk to supply the local area Whole Food's stores aswell as sell the produce at our road side stand and area Farmer's Markets.

Come Spring time, we're going to have a whole lot of planting to do. The new Pomegranate Orchard that is unplanted can hold a good 550 or so trees, with various areas around the property to be able to fit in another 500 or so.

Mainly been working on the web-side of things, so keep an eye on Oasis Valley Orchard and PomsToYou.com

Its about 11:30 AM right now, and its warmed up to a nice 55. I expect it to be near 70 today, so maybe I will get around to shooting some new photos.

Thats all for now.

Trunks

Basically we worked a lot, tried to enjoy our time away from the Orchard. Had a couple extravagant dinners with some really wealthy individuals and tried to relax. It was a nice week away from the desert, but I didn't want to stay gone too long.

More from New Mexico tomorrow or the day after.

September 12, 2009

Had to wake up at 4AM, take the boss to the airport by 6. Had a early morning start in Vegas, so decided to find a skatepark before it got hot. All before 10AM:






Not quite a accurate representation of the day-to-day life of living out here on the Orchard, I don't get to ride my bike nearly as much as I would like but I suppose there are more important things. Preparing for planting new trees soon, and have work cut out for us for the next month or so.

Returning to New Mexico for a weekend in October for a meeting, looking forward to going back to Truchas for a couple days.
