Miscellaneous Pictures

One of our charming little succulents...



Window views...



Do you see Vanessa? She's in there!
Yes, Christmas is still celebrated in full force here despite the lack of snow...

A view from the top of 21st Street, in the Noe Valley neighborhood.. our house is in the middle of the picture, near the big yellow and orange building in The Mission. You can also see SF General in Potrero Hill, the big brick compound with steam rising from it. And the hazy ridge of hills beyond is the East Bay. It's so cool to be able to see so many things from one spot! Totally not used to it.

Thriving succulents on the sidewalk...

A view of the southeastern part of the city from a quite dramatic-looking cypress tree that we found in a magically lush hill-top park, which we found while on a wandering walk one day.

A view of me from the same cypress tree, continuing the family tradition of not being so photogenic.

Typical SF.. so good!

Cool chocolate in the shape of a Swiss Army Knife given to us by neighbors who went to Switzerland over the holiday!

The car that caused a lot of ruckus this morning around the corner from our building... I still don't know exactly what happened, but there was an undercover cop running through our yard right after I heard about 15 full seconds of screeching and metal crunching. I'll have to keep my eye on the news.... Yep, we still live in the *interesting* part of town.

Market Street on a January morning, sunshine, trolley, palm trees and all!

At least Vanessa is cute! Remember that not-so-photogenic thing...? Sorry. Look at Vanessa again. Isn't she cute?!
