    Mr. Poe and I both got home late last night.  He had a meeting and I had to stop by Kaiser on the way home.  Do I ever hate the Divisadero Bus.  There was some guy sitting next to me who was chewing tobacco and spitting it into a cup.  Sadly, the spit improved his odor.  I tried to focus on my book--  1972 Isaac Asimov classic "The Gods Themselves".  Which has some very graphic alien sex scenes in it.  Caliente! 

    We were halfway through dinner before Mr. Poe got home and we all went to bed as early as we could.  And I slept like a rock.  I love it when I'm getting enough exercise.

    This morning I got up and headed out on the bike.  Two days in a row!  Unbelievable!  I took 17th to Eureka to 18th to Valencia to Mission to Sagamore to Brotherhood Way to Lake Merced to John Muir to Skyline to The Great Highway and up the coast.  I stopped at the Cliff House for a pic of the beach at sunrise:

    I headed up to Geary to 34th and up to the Palace of the Legion of Honor.  Today's pic has Pax Jerusalemme in it:

    Me:

    I got on Camino Del Mar to Lake to 8th and into Golden Gate Park.  I headed over to the Music Concourse where I got an unusually gauzy view of the copper cladding of the De Young Museum:

    The sun peeking through the clouds at the California Academy of Sciences:

    I got on MLK to Middle to JFK to Stanyan to Page where I saw the first signs of spring.  Huzzah!

    I continued on Page to Baker to Buena Vista East to Upper Terrace to Roosevelt to 17th to Mars to Corbett to Ord and home to get ready for work.  The fog was all burned off by the time I left the house for work.  It's gonna be a beautiful day.
