Walking home from Safeway a weekend or two ago. I’ve done this walk hundreds of times, but you don’t get a harvest moon everyday. And of course my camera couldn’t catch it. It’s been a clear beautiful October.
Harvest Moon
San Francisco
Everything in life is better in black and white and with sunglasses on
I just imported about a month’s worth of photos from several cameras and was surprised by how idyllic my life looks in photos. My life is very grey right now, but these black and whites made me smile. I need to take more pictures.
A lazy afternoon on Valencia

Loving the body language here.
And here too.
Gotta have a picture of coffee.
Close, but no Woody
Filming at 14th and South Van Ness
Edited to say: Flipping back to my photo I realized that dude in the khaki and black puffer vest is probably him, based on much better Twitter pictures from earlier today. So really, this post should be titled “I SAW WOODY ALLEN FROM BEHIND IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND DID NOT EVEN RECOGNIZE HIM.” AAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!
Giants vs. Phillies
My first baseball game in fifteen+ years! I am not a sports enthusiast by any means  but I figured that I owe Ryan given how many operas, plays and symphonies I’ve dragged him to in the last year or so. Also I imagined that baseball would be more enjoyable now that I can drink.
Everybody is bundled up- SF in the summertime. BRR!!!
Sometimes I wish that I understood and appreciated sports, just so that I could feel like I belong. Every few years I make it a new year’s resolution to “learn sports.” It never really works out. You just can’t fake excitement.
What I can get behind, however is the crazy mascots. OMG it’s Lou Seal the Giants mascot riding around on a golf cart throwing free pizzas at people! I didn’t even know that you could throw pizza!
One cool thing about AT&T Park is the giant slide inside the “Coke Bottle.” This is the view from the line. I guess the slide was meant for kids- I barely slid down the tube and had to push myself down.
There was a fight!
But my personal high point: photo op with Lou Seal!
I’m looking forward to returning to AT&T Park for the opera simulcast of Turandot next month. I’m not sure when I’ll see a baseball game again… Maybe in my 40s?
House Of Air
File this under San Francisco indulgence- it’s a Presidio warehouse transformed into a trampoline park. I had my reservations, but honestly, anything that you have to sign a waiver for… it’s gonna be good. I was here for a work event, but had to capture the insanity.
The best part hands down was playing trampoline dodgeball with/against elementary school children. Truly absurd.
