You Were There
Yesterday, my buddy, Kevin, and I went to the Giants vs Mets game, where we saw Barry Bonds hit his 711th career homerun. It was so surreal. I remember feeling this strange headrush as if the blood had drained out of my head: my whole face went all numb and tingly, and I felt odd ...Read more.

Panoramic Parking
Albadger and I went and looked at a house that I might be renting on Tuesday before Square Dance Class. Afterward, we drove to the top of Twin Peaks, where I took this picture. Clicking on the pic will take you to the full-size version – it’s big, real big.
