san francisco love letter #2

Down by the ballpark, a view of downtown and the bay bridge.

i dreamt i traveled and found you there


"i spent an hour with you
should i want anything else?"

T.M.I.

From the T-Third. We all know about Meaghan's building, but today we finally found Katherine's.

end of the line

I made Chris take the T-Third St. train to the very end. This line has been running for about 2 years, and I've never taken it. On most days there really isn't much point for me to ride it, but today seemed like the perfect time.

chris

Never wanting to return.

Vegetable stir-fry over rice.

I was craving vegetables...so I made something up....with vegetables. If you put enough sriracha on anything it tastes okay.

We stopped on the side of the road and this view made me giddy.

light/dark I

The prettiest view I've seen in a long time...and I see many pretty views. The photos I took don't properly capture the intensity of the contrasting light. Simply put: We stopped on the side of the road and this view made me giddy.

storm


Pretty.

let's take a picture

I'm thinking, "Vince, don't you dare drop my camera in that puddle!"

land's end

I found myself asking, "why have I never been here before?" Land's End is beautiful.

Watching the storm from my living room window.

north beach

Post-dinner haze.

dinner, february 12th

Gnocchetti in a tomato cream sauce. Vince came into town for his cousin's wedding this weekend and we spent thursday evening hanging out, drinking, eating, talking and walking around. I decided we should head to North Beach for dinner. We ended up at one of those places where you can sit outside (under large heat lamps of course). It was a very touristy thing to do, but it was fun.
