It's been so unseasonably warm in San Francisco that I pitched a tent on the roof of my building last night and slept outdoors! It was wonderful waking up to a view of the city and bay on a perfectly clear day!

public transport woes II
this picture is owned by the submitter. contact submitter for permission before using it in any wayAnother ridiculous thing about BART -- a voice announces what train you're on (something I doubt people are likely to forget) when it pulls up to a station instead of the station name! --may--
public transport woes
this picture is owned by the submitter. contact submitter for permission before using it in any wayWhy are there no maps in the BART station???? There's a map on the upper level by the ticket dispenser but nothing down here and I often bypass the ticket dispenser b/c I'll have a prepurchased ticket in hand. I've lived here for 7 years and it still drives me nuts that there's no subway map down here. It must be completely baffling for tourists.

Am on the roof of my building where I just watched the blue angels perform their death defying stunts over the city as part of the annual fleet week celebrations. (not quick enough unforunately to snap a pic) In past years they'd fly in between the towers here and set off all the car alarms in the neighborhood...not this year though....I think 9/11 and the war have made people more than a little skittish about planes flying in between buildings.

random acts of kindness
this picture is owned by the submitter. contact submitter for permission before using it in any waywas on the bus today when the man sitting next to me got up, approached a woman sitting across from us, put a $20 bill in her hand, and said "I think you dropped this" and then got off the bus. She looked a little embarassed and said "I can be clumsy like that." I didn't really think much of it until I looked closer and saw that her clothes were tattered, her feet unwashed and bandaged....and what initially looked like a really big tattered coat to me was actually a blanket. She also carried a plastic bag with a roll of toilet paper in it. --may--
