This is what Yosemite looks like at the top. My little GPS thingy said we were at 6666.something feet +/-26 feet. If you look carefully in the background of this picture you can see evidence that we weren’t the only people to make it to the top. In fact there were a variety of people of all different ages up…
read moreThe lower falls here are same ones that were in the previous picture, the upper falls you can see above are greatly affected by the wind. We hiked to the top of this mountain on Saturday. It’s more than 2000 vertical feet acheived over 3.6 miles. You can do the math if you want; what it works out to is…
read moreHere’s a little time-lapse of Jason and Wendy discussing the location of their tooth-paste. You have pretty much 2 choices of dwellings in Curry Village (That’s the name of the particular “town” inside of Yosemite where we stayed). There’s the perma-tent (a wooden platform on the ground with canvas sides and a roof – tent style, and, the full-on heated…
read moreSorry about that last post, i was trying to run out the door. We spent the past weekend at Yosemite. It’s great having a place like this less than 3 hours away… Say what you want about San Francisco, (oh wait, that’s me saying those things) but Yosemite rules big time I’ve got a bunch of pictures that i’ll be…
read moreThe Ferry Building is pretty much right across the street from where i work. Since i spend more of my waking time at work you could say that I spend most of my time looking at the ferry building, which is not necessarily a bad thing (The ferry building part) I was trying to capture some of the cars/buses that…

read moreI decided around 4:30 today that it was time to take a walk… so co-worker and i left the building on the sly. We talked about work stuff as we strolled around so i don’t really think there was any problem with it, but i know what some may say To complicate things, there was a baseball game this afternoon…
read moreEveryone loves cable cars right? The tourists sure do. It’s kind of funny – if you take pictures of the cable car the people riding them pose for you. They’re really proud of the fact that they’re on the cable car – maybe just that they made it through the line to ride the thing – and now have the…
read moreLooking south into Washington Square Park the sky seemed much more omnious with an infrared filter strapped to the front. (although a couple of hours later i got totally soaked) For some reason all of north beach was deserted Sunday morning… it may have been the fact that daylight savings went into effect in the middle of the night. Either…
read moreThe second thing that’s up here is a giant concrete cross It’s kind of strange – as you walk up the hill to the summit of Mount Davidson (summit because it’s the highest point in San Francisco) you’re in a state park. The area surrounding the cross though, it’s made abundantly clear, is owned by the church. I guess they…
