Not too sure what geese have to think about, but he was there for a while... must've been pretty heavy

While I was walking down shore. I saw this jetty from a good distance away. As I got closer, I spotted this moment. I could tell the woman in the picture was relaxing and taking all the surroundings in, so I decided to capture it. This quick snap turned into a calming and soothing moment and overall a beautiful picture.
“We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive.” -- C.S. Lewis
"Building a bar may seem like a trivial way to shift gears....[but] an enormous percentage, by their own admission, have no desire to shift gears..."

From a series of circa-1960s D.I.Y. books called "Easi-Bild" that were published by a fellow named Donald Brann. In the beginning of each one, he wrote a little homily that tried to link up his own Confucius-like wisdom with whatever Easy Bild project was at hand.
So there would be a couple of paragraphs where he waxed poetic about some general concept essential to the good life, and then there would be a paragraph where he'd try to make you think you'd never done better by yourself than you did the moment you decided, say, to purchase the Easy Bild book on building a plywood bar in your basement.
A tragically overlooked 20th-century Thoreau was Mr. Brann.
This is what Mr. Pink looked like when I gave him the "Daddy is going to be gone all next week" talk. He wasn't very happy. I'll have to buy him some cat treats in San Francisco.
7.1.11 2011 HALFWAY MARK! As the 1st half of the year comes to a close, I've maneuvered n' adjusted a lotta pieces in my checkers match vs life, Some of mine got gobbled, but I gobbled right back. With the 2nd half of the year looming, I'll have new challenges to take on & a fantastic chinese congregation to support, n' a fun ride in the process in site. Hmm what IS my next move. (Shot taken @ B St in Hayward; LOVE the park checkerboard setup :D)
