  • Friday, May 2

    I had to go run errands over lunch.  OK it was the comic book store and the burrito place.  But they were still errands.  I went for a little walk as well.  I stopped by St. Mary's in Chinatown for some pics.  It was the first cathedral in San Francisco. 

      

    This, apparently, is the only wood bridge in Chinatown.  Yes I asked.  I'm that nosey.

      

    Some other pics of Chinatown:

      

      

    I saw this little dog at union square.  I hear you're not supposed to dye a dog's hair.  I think he looked happy with his glamorous do and I when I pet him his skin seemed fine.  Take that, PETA.

    Mr. Poe calls these Italian Lily trees and says we can't have one in our yard because they attract ants.  Which doesn't stop me from wanting one:

    Here's the front of the statue on top of the column in Union Square.  I got a shot of the back this morning:

    And, finally, a wide shot of Union Square.  Gorgeous!

    After work I had to got to REI to pick up my commuter bike so I just rode up Market home.
