Photos for photo’s sake. Sometimes I just want to post a photo without tying it back to some meaningful context.

Black bridge over the Colorado River

The very bottom of the Grand Canyon

I was quite literally holding my camera an inch off of the water. This also shows how we got from one side of the Colorado River to the Bright Angel Campground on the other.

We didn’t do much on Friday except relax. We “strolled” up Bright Angel Creek a bit. We took a dip in the creek to cool off and soothe our sore muscles. We ate a lot of mashed potatoes.

I work in an office. In the city. OMG.

This is a view I’m guessing very few people ever experience. I call it, The Reverse Hills Bros. This is not exactly the new view from my desk—I’ll post that in a day or two.

Update: With a new office comes a new view!

Bridge of Glass

Chihuly Bridge of Glass
In the spirit of Les plafonds du Louvre

We did not have a chance to visit the Tacoma Museum of Glass last weekend (beyond stumbling upon Dale Chihuly’s Bridge of Glass installation), but I do hope to see his exhibition at the de Young Museum sometime before it ends on September 28.

Barbecue grill at the airport

Only in Texas.

Barbecue grill at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport

Though technically speaking, this is a bbq pit (or a smoker).

Above the fog

After several unusual days last week in the high 80s and low 90s, the fog came back with a vengeance. San Francisco should be where that white, billowing, cloud-like substance is.

Above the fog

Above the fog, at Mt. Tam State Park (where this picture was taken), it was still surprisingly at least 90 degrees. Back in the fog, (where we live) it was windy, misty, and in the low 50s.
