Sunday, kragen and I went out to Bolinas, to see my dad and hang out. I also did my Mum's bills and such. As the BMW is in the shop, we took the number 10 bus out there and Dad picked us up in Marin City. We had a beautiful drive over Mt. Tam with no traffic in front in front of us - amazing ( Read more... )

Yeah, team house cleaning is the coolest. We do it every Wednesday now and it has really impoved the quality of my life. Yay team housecleaning! Go team go!

The picture sea anemone in shadow is really nice. The lichen, the sunny rock, the reflection of a (your?) hand... it's a good picture.

It is indeed my hand. Thanks for the compliment, I'm glad you like the photos. I had a good time yesterday on the walk, and taking the photos.

Yeh the picture is really nice!

yes, yes, I know I'm overly geeky, but... anemone January 23 2006, 17:22:07 UTC

Those are actually christmas tree anemones, I believe.

I did try to take a name based on them after greenanemone@hotmail.com was taken, but I thought christmastreeanemone was too long. Maybe I should have done xmastreeanemone....(but I anyway ended up as greenanemone2).

cool! I have no idea what *exactly* they are, just that they're anemone's. Thanks for the explanation. I licensed the photos under CC, so you are welcome to use them, if you'd like...

sounds like a lovely walk. Makes me want to go walking about tidepools again too :)

LOL, this cracked me up - especially since gizmodo picked it up! way to go!

i also love the anemones. a lot. i always thought that reef was called duxbury? sounds the same anyway. makes me miss bolinas.

you're right - let me try and fix that. ::blushes::

I fixed the spelling of "duxbury" everywhere I remembered posting it. The funny thing is that I used google to check the spelling and other people have misspelled it as well (only 16 links), but not as many have spelled it right (898)

well, those bolinas folks sure do like to obscure everything about their town, so who knows how it is really suuposed to be?!?!?!

i'm surprised no one's tried to erase Bolinas from GoogleEarth!
