Touchée Delta, Touchée.
So this morning when I got up to get ready for work and stepped in the tub to have a shower I pulled up the knob (diverter – for you plumbing heads) on the tub spout to force the water up to the shower head and a white piece of plastic flew out the end [...]
Parker and Christen’s long walk
Today a tourist asked me where the Mrs. Doubtfire houses are “the 4 coloured ones”. I actually was able to tell the her it was Alamo Square she was looking for (which was actually from the set of Full House). I pointed her in the right direction. Maybe that gets me a few more San [...]

Day 3
Well, we’ve been busy. That might be an understatement. Yesterday we were taken all around the Pacific Heights area by our destination specialist Rita. She had a bunch of places for us to see, but none of them really clicked for us. I don’t think she really “got” who we were. She must be used [...]
First day wrap up.
After sleeping five hours yesterday afternoon, Jesse and I took Parker for her first walk at Lafayette Park. It’s about 300 meters away from us here but SO STEEP. My goodness. I wore heels (that’s not happening again). This morning both of our calves are aching! [View from Lafayette Park - lookin down our street. [...]
