Skating In Golden Gate Park This Morning

September 5, 2011 at 1:21 am

I got filmed in the park this morning for KGO Channel 7 TV. Mike Shumann, ex-49er wide receiver, the nightly news sports anchor, is doing the story. Abe Mendoza was the cameraman. After we finished shooting, I got this little girl, Maya Rose Wayman, age 8, onto my skateboard for her first standup ride (holding on to my arm, me walking alongside). Her dad, Wayman Lew, took the photo. More on Sunday’s adventures later.

Tiny Homes Book in Final Stages

September 2, 2011 at 7:43 pm

Detritus of about a year’s work as we start our 4th and final printout of all pages, this time on high-quality proofing paper. Rick has sent a selection of photos to our new Hong Kong printers (Paramount) to begin the process of insuring we get the colors right. In our usual seat-of-pants book production process, we’ll now turn to working on a cover, and me to probably several more rewrites of the intro. (I’m still figuring out just what we’ve got here.) Each time I look at it I get more excited.

California Dreamin

September 2, 2011 at 5:59 pm

First, the sun is out and it’s morning. We’ve had two months of fog, maybe clearing in the afternoon. But now with the slightly harsher colors of fall in the air, it’s a sunny morning and the blackberries are ripening. Second, the entire California coast is surf city right now. Big south swell. Third, bi-coastal exchange: we are actually getting theNew York Times delivered in our driveway on this dirt road. A miracle! What a relief from the San Francisco Chronicle.

Here’s Mt. Tamalpais with the 2-days-from-new moon from a parking lot near Sushi-Ko in Larkspur Wednesday night.
