Sonoma, CA
August 20, 2008 |

Grapes and olives...is it possible that Sonoma requires everything growing within its borders to be round?  We're testing that theory with the help of Horace.  Round one of experimentation shows that Nomadic monkey stays exactly the same size despite exposure to a vast amount of fermented grape products n' such.  Zoe finds an awesome organic restaurant in town and rapidly becomes more spherical.  That's 'cause Horace is a stuffed animal, while Zoe's just stuffed. 


There just aint no pesticide that's gonna work against a plague fo monkeys

So many vineyards....so many miles to drive the car home afterwards

Olive oil is one of the four food groups...and may be required to get Zoe through the door later.

Portland, OR
July 21, 2008 |

Do you play guitar?  Come to Portland!  Play on the street!  Play in this very trendy coffee shop!  Play in this awesome organic Market!  This city positively sprouts enthusiastic guitarists.

But after a couple of days of Perl Jam covers, Nomadic Monkey desires a more laid-back soundtrack in the nearby mountains. Imagine him posing here to some catchy fiddle and banjo by the Del McCoury Band.


Obligatory proof-of-location shot

What awesome fuzzy topography! And the landscape's pretty good too!

I already used up my one landscape joke for the week. Sorry.

The famous Powell's Bookstore. Horace gets filed under F for "freakishly-adorable-round-thing"

Washington DC
July 14, 2008 |

Yes, indeed, here we are in our nation's capital: home of lawmakers, students, and ten thousand political interns.  Horace the Nomadic Monkey believes he would be an excellent elected official.  Who's going to argue with an adorable monkey senator?  Nobody, that's who.  Vote for Horace in 2008.


This picture was later reused for a patriotic deoderant commercial

It's like a garden sculpture, only more so

Metro transit: so smooth you'll think it's trying to sell you on a tax hike.
