Dog Bowl Travels The World
I painted this bowl in December 1996 for my dog Sam in Seattle (technically it was Bellevue). Since then, Milo and Ripley used it in Seattle and London, and now Busby and Piper use it; first in San Francisco, and now in Amsterdam. It’s Busby’s go-to water bowl, but I think that’s because he likes to drink water outside where I keep the bowl. I don’t understand his logic, but at least he’s enjoying the bowl now that it is in Amsterdam.
The View During My Morning Commute
Part of my commute to work includes walking along the canals.
Rented an Electric BMW
We have now driven in the Netherlands and rented a BMW i3, plus figured out how to recharge it. It’s a fun little car with about 120-160km per charge. Even the "fast" charge can take hours to charge it though.
Garbage Day in Amsterdam
People don’t have their own garbage and recycling cans in Amsterdam. Instead, there are bins on every other block. They are bigger than they look from the street though, which you can see from the photos when the garbage truck comes.

Shipping Overseas
We can track our shipment as it goes from San Francisco, through the Panama Canal, over to Amsterdam.
