One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

If you're ever in the bay area, take the ferry right before sunset from the SF ferry station to Larkspur in Marin; the sun sets behind the golden gate bridge and alcatraz casting a golden light on the hilly sloped of San Francisco and deep green of the Marin hills. 'nuf said.

Santa Barbara soaks up a good sunset too. One of the only places in california where the beach faces south for some distance, causing the sun to set both over the mountains and the ocean. quite a spectacle, it's great how something so predictable can remain so amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think I have some life lessons I've learned, but I still have yet to experience so much. Feed me bits and pieces of your history. Everyone has a history, the shadow just varies in size from individual to individual.
