Geometry...

All those wonderful shapes and textures.  Take each item and make it a math problem.  At least math would be fun.

Right across the street from Old Saint Mary's Church in San Francisco.

Goat Story...




My hillside was full of goats this afternoon.  The city finally got smart and instead of fighting fires on this hill every year... make some goats happy with a lot of ground to feed on.



Same shot but with the new 75mm (150mm equiv.) f/1.8 M.Zuiko

A Dirt Road...

Trees to my left... Vineyard to my right... a path down the center.

Eyes of the Crusher...

Wonderful statue of the Grape Crusher in Napa Valley.

Forgotten...

Sad that this bunch may not make it to a bottle.  It's cells will help nurture mother earth and the next generation of grapes will inherit.

Remember that scene in the movie Police Academy where the cadets were brought in for crowd control.  Here are the real ones.  Where's Mahoney??

Da Power...

At one time, Willie Brown Jr. was the most powerful politician in California.  The Speaker of the State Assembly was essentially a lifetime appointment before term limits.  When term limits came about... Willie was out.  I have to give him credit, he did break up the "good ol' boy's network" in the City when he was Mayor.

Dress Up...

Although you can look like this in San Francisco and no one would even care... today, everyone is a clown.

Baby Panda Junior...

That's one way to beat the crowds and see things.  Climb aboard dad's shoulders.

The Greatest...

A few years ago a question was asked of Major League Baseball players and managers, past and present... "If you were only allowed to pick one baseball player of all time, who would it be?"  The answer kept coming back... Willie Mays.  Say hey!

Old Pitchers Never Die...

They just get to enjoy and ride in parades.  For those who don't know who this is... it's Gaylord Perry.  He'll never say if he threw spitters.
