Spend the morning at the Citrus Balloon Festival in Santa Paula, CA today. I was hoping to get some sick time-lapse of the 20 some balloons launching into flight. That didn't happen. Weather was a bit to foggy and when it cleared it was too late to launch the balloons. This dampened my mood which was already dampened by the SPPD that scolded me for riding my bike on the wrong side of the road even thought it was the right side. He pointed out that I should be on the other side of the road behind the pedestrian barricades that where specially set up for the event. How the hell I am supposed to know to ride my bike on the incorrect side of the road with the people who are walking?!. Anyway I would have totally let it go except he was talking to me like I was an 8 year old for the first time on a bike. Where is it in the law that states that just because you are a policeman, you have to be an angry jerk too (especially at an event that people are going to have fun at?). Any who, the photo ops where basically a bust. I got a few shots for documentary purposes, but nothing that I am total psyched on. Better luck next year Norlander.
