    Dear Mother Nature-- 

    Enough with the fucking rain.

    --  Love Joseph

    I spent Thursday dodging heavy rainstorms but I managed to get some riding in.  I came down Market in the morning right before it started and then made it home for lunch during a break in the weather.  I don't know who was calling in to the Rush Limbaugh show yesterday, but Mimi was all atwitter about the "Jews who run Bollywood".  Gosh she's a cute little thing. 

    After work I headed off 2nd to Howard to 11th to Harrison to 23rd.  These murals at 23rd and South Van Ness are recent and very pretty:

    This is the view from Mission and 23rd:

    I continued on 23rd to Valencia to Tiffany to 29th to San Jose to Wilder to Diamond to Monterey into Santa Clara where I stopped for pics of pretty Saint Francis Wood:

    Me:

    I continued on Santa Clara to Portola to Claremont to Dewey to Laguna Honda into 7th to Irving to 9th and into Golden Gate Park.  I headed over to the Music Concourse which I haven't visited in a while.  The De Young Museum looked fabulous as always:

    The California Academy of Sciences:

    Skaters:

    I got on JFK to 8th to Lake to Arguello to Clay to Steiner.  St Dominics looked a little sinister against the blue, blue sky:

    I continued on Steiner.  This pretty mural is on Steiner at Post on the Hamilton Recreation Center:

    I continued on Steiner and got a pic of some of the fabulous Victorians at Steiner and Golden Gate:

    I continued on Steiner to Fulton to Scott to Duboce to Castro to 17th to Ord and home for dinner.
