Thousand Oaks - Westlake Village Business Expo 06

Thousand Oaks - Westlake Village Regional Chamber of Commerce holds Business Expo and Trade Show three times a year. Today's theme was Surf your way to Better Business.

Thousand Oaks - Westlake Business Expo takes place at Hyatt Westlake Plaza Hotel in the Garden area. I have done a few wedding photography gigs in this very spot. The expo is absolutely free for public to attend.

There always have food, drink, gifts, and prizes. Almost all 70 vendor's tables were taken. (I think it was sold out).

I ate 2 hot-dogs, 1 tamale, 2 tacos, 2 wines, 1 coke, and number of other small treats. Yikes...

Next expo will be held on September. Come on over to have fun and get to know the businesses in your area. If you are a business owner you can have your own table for just $225.00

Oxnard Burger King - Fire

6 Thumbnails below 

This Burger King at Oxnard shares the parking lot with Costco.
They are temporarily closed due to fire.
I remember coming here 6 years ago (2000) to trade Pekemon Toys with youngsters.
This Burger King was packed with pokemon collectors at that time.

Post Plaza - Pickwick Across Post Office

Camarillo Water Tower

This water tower is visible from most parts of Camarillo. 
Look close at the top of the tower, you can see a lot of equipment up there.
At night, it blinks red light to warn airplanes because this tower is located right on the airplane route.  The funny thing is that this tower is painted in sky-blue paint.  This reminds me of typical cartoon clips.  Birds and airplanes can fly into this tower because it's camouflaged.

During the Christmas season, they put on the lights on the top of the tower Click Here for pictures of the tower with Christmas lights.

RadioShack Closing

RadioShack at Camarillo Town Center is closing.
The entire store was on sale.
Of course, they have already stashed the good stuff away.
I couldn't find any spectacular savings.

There is another Radio Shack at Camarillo, on Arneill Road close to K-Mart.

Clock at Old Town Camarillo

Day 1: Monday May 8, 2006

This ever-famous clock at Old Town Camarillo had not been working for several months. The factory people were supposed to come fix the clock. I think they are finally working on it. I saw this development Monday morning around 8:30am

Old Town Camarillo Clock

Day 2: Tuesday May 9, 2006

They put a little fence around the clock.  On lunch time, I saw two guys working on the clock with the big glasses off. When I came back with the camera (50 minutes later) those two men were on the ground. (I missed a good shot). What I noticed, was that the clock was about 20 minutes faster. I don't think this job is done.

Clock Old Town Camarillo

Day 3: Wednesday May 10, 2006

They fixed the time. Now it's running about 2-3 minutes behind, which is pretty close. But, I hope they would adjust the time even further, so it will be super accurate.  We'll see what happens tomorrow.

Camarillo Clock Old Town

Day 4 & 5 - Thursday / Friday

The clock is still running about 2 minutes behind.
Maybe my watch is fast?
Anyway, they still have the fence around the clock.

Day 15 - May 23, 2006 Tuesday - Job completed.
They have cleared everything around the clock. Clock is running 2-3 minutes late.
I am beginning to wonder if my clock is running faster.

Salzers, Ventura

Salzers at 101 Freeway and Victory, Ventura
