Today my friends and I hiked the cliffs of San Francisco. We took a short hike then had a picnic on a large landing spot along the California coastal trail. We explored Fort Cronkhite and Rodeo Beach. In terms of natural splendor so close to the City, this place is unsurpassed. There’s lots of WWII […]

Finding Narnia

My friend Kevin and I explored Oakland yesterday sharing dating stories, walking my dog Max and discussing life’s adventures. I considered what it was like to fall in love for the first time.

My Heart is in Sydney for Mardi Gras
posted by Daily Post from Bluxome Street
