Nicole and I took my mom over to the Castro for dinner and a move. The Sausage Factory is the place for solid italian food for a good price.
After dinner we headed over to the Castro Theatre to see a new print of Touchez pas au grisbi. Great caper film with […]

I decided to stay in the city today and dragged my mom downtown. Once we were both sick of the people in Union Square, which wasn’t long, we we decided to walk into China Town.

I have finally uploaded some of the images from our most excellent trip to Lassen National Park. They are only the ones I took with my Cannon P330. Once I print the 35mm and get a scanner maybe I’ll post them too…
