The San Francisco Neighborhoods

I walked into an ice cream shop in the Inner Sunset area of San Francisco and saw these cool paintings on the wall. They celebrate the different San Francisco Neighborhoods (Sorry for the weird angles as there were a bunch of people in the shop and the paintings were in some interesting places as far as angles in the shop):

This one I tried to get from many different angles. It was in a super weird spot in the shop and this is the best I could get:

So now if one asks, you know the different neighborhoods in San Francisco.

Golden Gate Park Japanese Tea Garden

I went to the Japanese Tea Garden at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco and it was a beautiful and peaceful time:

The Japanese Tea Garden at Golden Gate Park is one of the most peaceful places I have ever been and I really enjoyed the zen there.

Music Monday: Childhood Movie Songs

Music Monday: We are going to try some Movie Songs from my childhood. Normally, this would be easy because when I was a teenager there were great movie songs but I am challenging myself as I am limiting myself to before I was in eighth grade:


From The Muppet Movie:

From Thank God It's Friday:

From For Your Eyes Only:

From Flashdance:

From 9 to 5:

And the big one I still listen to, From Raiders of the Lost Ark:

Hope you enjoy and Have a wonderful Monday.

A Special Graduation

Cal State East Bay had their commencement ceremony for the Class of 2018 last week. It was special for me. I graduated the school when it was Cal State Hayward with my degree in Mass Communications. Last week, my daughter Allison graduated from Cal State East Bay in Communications. We both worked on the school newspaper-The Pioneer.  It was a pretty cool time:

I am so pround of Allison. She is a lovely and an amazing woman who went to three colleges and graduated in four years. Not Bad. I love her with all my heart and the future is so bright for her. She is amazing.

A Visit to Cleophus Quealy Beer Company

San Leandro, Ca is getting to be a place where a lot of local breweries are popping up. I went to one called the Cleophus Quealy Beer Company on a recommedation of a friend and it was quite nice:

Besides the DJ, games and being a cool place to hang out, the beer and food are good also:

The Cleophus Quealy Beer Company is great addition to the local brewery scene here in the Bay Area.

2018 San Francisco Comic Con

I went to the 2018 San Francisco Comic Con over the weekend. It as usual a fun time:

Besides all the cool art, were all the people that were dressed up. That is what makes Comic-Con:

San Francisco Comic Con is always an amazing event to see and attend.
