Stinson Beach

Drove up to Stinson yesterday (Dec 28). Gorgeous & warm, clean & crisp from all the rain, plus huge waves. Also found a massive chunk of beached whale carcass which was a little gross... We were wave hunting. Started at Fort Point to watch the surfers under the Golden Gate Bridge, then Stinson, then all the way up to Point Reyes with plenty of deer, reindeer, cow and horse sightings along the road.  Fun day!

Gotta love it... As seen in the checkout line at Safeway.

LA

Roof of The Standard for drinks with J9 and Tim on Thurs before Christmas. Knapp called right when we were talking about him-eerie!  

Sharks!

Went to our first Sharks game at HP Pavilion last night. Awesome!! They beat the Ducks 4-2. We were up in the Hitachi skybox thanks to Kevin, and brought Jason along as well. Great company as well as a great game. Last time we saw them was when they were still playing at the Cow Palace - only been to the "Shark Tank" for shows... I believe the last was Queensryche!

NSSN

Not So Silent Night w/Hot Hot Heat (who were GREAT), Death Cab (who were good but not as good as at the Warfield a few weeks back), and White Stripes (who kinda sucked).  Thanks to Mary for the tix and passes - she always takes great care of us!
