Smiling Pelican Bakeshop

Brutal late afternoon of trying to get a shot of downtown Minneapolis beneath heavy cloud. Got into position and thought the wind was going to blow over the tripod. Got that secured, started lining up a shot…and then the rain began to fall. Didn’t bring an umbrella, so that was a wrap.
Here’s a photo from sunnier moments this past weekend: the delightful Smiling Pelican Bakeshop in Maiden Rock, WI, with special guest star The Sunflowers.

View of Coit Tower from Ina Coolbrith Park

San Francisco, CA. Ina kicked ass, and the views from the park named after her do, too. Well worth a little extra stress on the legs to get to this place.

Bay blues

Lucky enough to have spent a few days in San Francisco with Mrs. Twin Cities Seen for an anniversary get-away weekend. Rolled my lazy bum out of bed pre-dawn one morning and walked to the Ferry Building at the end of Market St. This is what I saw when I got to the bay.

You stay right there and don't move...

Found near a railroad building that looked as if it had been co-opted by several folks as perhaps a semi-permanent living space.
