Shades of Blue and Green

Over the weekend I took a quick little ferry trip across the bay to Sausalito.  It’s absolutely perfect there. These days I feel more so than ever that I should be living on a boat, traveling the world...

  Getting off the ferry in Sausalito last weekend. Kind of looks like Italy, or paradise, but in reality, just a quick boat ride out of the city. California continues to impress me with her humble...

“Relax Yourself”

The furthest phrase from my mind today.  Although as I get older I get better at attempting to keep perspective. The new music is really helping. Seriously if you haven’t given it a try yet, just do...

Favorite Reading Spots in SF
