Friday Ferry

It’s ferry in Friday night. We had dinner at Shanghai 1930. Tea Smoked Squab, Garlic Noodles with Shrimp, Crispy Short Ribs and a Red Bean Crepe for dessert. They even poured me a Scotch on the rocks for free! The food was great, but the place was too dark to shoot any photos.

Lawn Mowers

I almost die every time I mow the backyard lawn because of the slope. I often wonder how the pros would handle this on a bigger scale… As I was driving home from Los Banos today, I got my answer. I captured this with a drive by shooting of the preferred professional method right at …

Drive by Shooting

Today I shot some photos while driving to Modesto without even looking, just to see what I’d get. As you can imagine most of the 58 were junk.

Bay Bridge Shutdown

Yesterday, the Bay Bridge was closed for construction over the Labor Day weekend. The ferries were running all day so I decided to ride into the city for a dinner date. We ran over to Red’s Java House on Alex’s suggestion, but it was closed by time we got there.  So instead we ate some …

Bowzer’s Pizza

It was too hot to do anything today. Not wanting to heat up the kitchen we had lunch at Bowzer’s Pizza here in Alameda. The Underdog was great.

Sonoma Last Day

As she has every day of this trip, the princess slept in today. But it’s okay, it’s her birthweek. After breakfast, we enjoyed one last dip in the jacuzzi and then started on our way back home, but not before stopping at the Arts & Crafts Fair to drop a few dollars and help the …
