Natural State Bridges Monarch Trail

I visited the monarch trail while in the area with the idea of photographing the butterflies. Unfortunately February is the end of the season and there were only a few.

Ramen Nagi

Jon-Michael introduced me to this new place. Black squid ink ramen, so good.

He also introduced me to Uncle Tetsu cheesecakes.

Koa 2009-2022

Sad news, my friend Koa passed away recently. We dropped by 3 weeks ago and she was as sweet as ever. That was the last time we saw her.

San Francisco Zoo 2022

Sandy gave me a membership to the SF Zoo for Christmas, so we finally made the trip out.

Hummer Shoot

I shoot whatever is in my backyard and lately that has been the Hummingburds.

I don’t always get it right as sometimes I catch them in these awkward positions or angles.

I eventually get something though.

Hummer Portrait

Humphrey allowed me to get close enough to shoot this.

Cloud Egg Brunch

After giving blood this morning I was in a generous mood so I made Sandy a cloud egg.

I watched a interesting episode of Nova and they made a compelling argument for eating insects, mainly good gut bacteria. On the environmental side they make a much smaller footprint. Therefore I decided to give it a try by starting easy… ground crickets in a smoothie. Sandy said if I start chirping at night she will pull the plug on this 💩.
