At New City Nissan today for our Leaf service. I photographed the Z car that I wouldn't mind having. I lusted after one back in 1970 when I was at Keesler AFB in Biloxi, Mississippi.

Breakfast at Jack in the Box while waiting for our Leaf to be serviced at New City Nissan. I photographed the interior murals before and they still look good. Markedly Hawaiian, Jack.

The bonsai banyan after trunk and branch bending held with wire stays. This tree will grow for a few months and the wire will be removed. Then it will grow unrestrained for a couple of years before the next phase of development. Bonsai is about looking at trees and thinking about the future.
