pigs on the wing

All right, I took this with my iPhone. That's right, I have an iPhone. I stupidly forgot my camera one day, and of course I found myself at the Pixar music festival (Pixarpalooza), where they had their own floating pig, which would have made for some fun photos, particularly when the pig started drifting dangerously close to the heat lamps.

climate change

Another shot from a plane! But this one is cool, too. This shows how quickly the terrain changes in the East Bay. On the right, you can see the San Francisco Bay, then as you trace left across the photo (west), you can see the mountains and then the desert of the valley.



Well, at least I think it's cool.

love in the barn

A year ago, my dear friends Sue and Chris got married at the Queens County Farm Museum.



Happy Anniversary, I love you guys.

I shot this just a few minutes after taking off from San Francisco and heading to Chicago. I like that in this photo you can see a golf course wedged between an industrial zone and the Oakland airport.



This photo is facing south and heading west over the San Francisco Bay.

family (shoe) tree

I spent a lot of time with family in San Francisco. This is one of my cousin's kids at an engagement party for another cousin.

birthday banquet

Sunday was Juan's birthday, and I made us a picnic to take along in his camper van as we watched the sun set over the Bay. This is a dulce de leche cheesecake. I was so concerned with trying to take a proper photo that I forgot to tell him to make a wish.



I did sing, though.
