July 22nd - 8 years ago

July 22, 2019
It has been 8 years since you left.  Never a day goes by that something doesn't bring you to my thoughts.  When I'm back home, I always come by and say hello and chat for a bit.  There have been many times I wished I could really speak with you and hear your thoughts on things I've had to deal with and put myself in.  I miss you Grandma and love you.



 

July 21 - Another day

July 21, 2019
Welcome foolish mortals.  Another warm day in SoCal.  Been a crazy few weeks out here as been busy.  Also just realized how much a credit card is connected with everything as I had to change one and lost my site for a bit.  Well, we're back now and all is good.

Hate the weekends are so short.  Went to the OC Fair last night and was very disappointed.  The rides were lame and the food selection was just as bad.  Nothing really unique there like I'm used to.  Oh well.  Until the next time...

July 1st - Getting closer

July 2, 2019
Welcome foolish mortals to the month of July!!!  This year is just cruising on by and it's almost the best time of the year.  Yes, it's almost time to start building the haunts and mazes at the theme parks around us.  I am getting super excited for this.  Gonna be getting the Scare Pass for Knotts again.  Gonna be awesome.

Otherwise, summer is now full swing here and the heat is kicking in.  However, also nice evenings are here and able to play golf until 8 pm or so.  Got in a round last week ...

June 18th - Moving along

June 19, 2019
Welcome foolish mortals.  Here we are in the middle of June and almost the first day of summer.  Been having some "June gloom" out here in SoCal and it's kept the days cooler but I'm sure that will change soon.  

Work has been extra crazy and busy for the past few months.  Actually since I got back from my Florida trip, it's been non-stop since my feet hit the California soil.  

Had a great father's day playing my favorite sport.  A round of golf at a pleasant named course of Green River.  The ...

June 5th - Hello June

June 5, 2019
Welcome foolish mortals...to June.  Been a flying time this year and it doesn't seem to be letting up anytime soon.  Summer is about on us and we're hoping not to have the 115 degree temps this year.  UGH!!!

Star Wars Galaxy Edge opened last week and so far it seems to be a huge hit.  Crowds, crowds and crowds.  Not sure when I might take a peek at it but I know I will eventually.  I'm looking forward to something even better and bigger...in my opinion.  The Haunted Mansion is celebrating it's...

May 9th - Crazy days

May 9, 2019
Welcome foolish mortals.  I have to say, it's been crazy here the past few days, weeks, months.  Who am I kidding?  It's crazy here all the time.  Been super busy but have a few moments so I thought I'd send an update.  No new pics yet but hoping soon.

This past weekend, I got to do something I haven't done in over 20 years.  I went to an AVP tournament at Huntington Breach.  Ran into the team that won the whole thing and saw a lot of reminders of how it used to be back in my early 20's.  I go...

May 2nd - Welcome to May

May 2, 2019
Greetings foolish mortals and welcome to May!!!  Here we are firmly planted in spring and summer is right around the corner.  It's been some weird weather out here in SoCal and I'm hoping, but doubting, that the summer isn't going to be too bad.

Still working on the site, trying to clean it up, make it more viable to the pages and adding more pics.  It's a work in progress hence the name Bill Bickford Project.  Originally, back in the 90's, I was considering the name Bill Bickford Corporation,...

April 24th - Work

April 25, 2019
Welcome foolish mortals!!!  Well, I've been doing some work on the site, trying to clean it up and make it a little easier to navigate.  I'm also doing a lot of work behind the scenes to make it easier for me to keep track of what I've been posting.  Maintaining a web site is not very easy, especially when you work full time plus at another job.  Now if this were my only job and I was getting paid for it, then I'd have no reason to miss posts or even have the site lagging in updates.  However...
