Some information about the Golden Gate Bridge.
The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the
Golden Gate strait, the 1 mile wide, 1.7 mile long channel between San Francisco
Bay and the Pacific Ocean. The bridge links the city of San Francisco to Marin
County on U.S. 101 and California Route 1 across the strait. It was declared one
of the Wonders of the Modern World. It was built starting in 1933 and ending in
1937.
In 2007 Deputies On The Go had a cruise from San Francisco to Canada.
Leaving SF we went under the G G Bridge. I took this....
Yesterday early evening I met Brian, Jen, Tucker, Sami, and
Jack at Taqueria la Guacamaya in Rogue River, to celebrate Jen's birthday. I had called Julio
earlier to secure a window table for us. When Brian Jen and kids had been in So.
Cal recently they went to Olvera Street. Brian got Julio a shirt:
I had a Margarita, Jen had a Sangria...
My dinner was fish tacos.... MMMMMMM....
I got Tucker and Sami something new to play with, they are sticker books
and you make pictures with the stickers. Keeps them very busy!
When dinner was done Julio and the waitress sang the traditional Mexican
birthday song to Jen while other diners joined in...
I have been cleaning out "stuff" lately and had a number of wide mouth pint canning jars.
Since Julio serves his Margaritas in those jars I took them to him.

July 12th
Different Colored Eyes Day
Different Colored Eyes Day has two reasons to celebrate. First of all,
it celebrates diversity of eye color. Wouldn't the world be boring, if everyone
had the same color of eyes?
Secondly, it recognizes an eye condition called Heterochromia. People who
have this trait, have two different colors of eyes. One eye may be brown, while
the other is blue. Famous people who have Heterochromia include David Bowie,
Jane Seymour, and Christopher Walken.
Your eyes are an important part of your appearance. They are also important
in communications. When you look into your lover's eyes, you need to like what
you see. Making "eye contact" just wouldn't be the same without different
colored eye. Isn't it great that we have a variety of eye colors to set us apart
from one another?
Eye colors include:
Shades of brown
Shades of blue
Shades of green
Black
Gray ('grey' is British English and 'gray' is American English!)
Hazel
Celebrate Different Colored
Eyes Day by taking particular notice of the eye colors of everyone you
see.
** Mine are hazel. What color are
yours???
