Paddleboard and BOB

Golden Gate Paddleboarder

On today's Sunday Beach Stoll with the doggies, caught this paddleboarder going by with a nice juxtiposition of the Golden Gate (aka Big Orange) Bridge.

Saturday makeup picture -- Curving down Lombard

Curve down Lombard

Sorry about missing Saturday's photo. It was a very busy day (we went to see Wicked -- SPECTACULAR!!!)

Anyway, this shot is taken (by the wife, I didn't balance the camera as I was taking the curve) as we drove down Lombard street in our new car (kind of a ritual -- new car, new trip down Lombard). Coit tower is in the distance.

This view will scare a lot of people. I had a picture of the drill too, but that was just beyond decorum to show that.

The Battery and the Bridge

Battery and bridge

The Golden Gate Bridge sits at the edge of the old Presidio. Peppered along the coast on the Presidio are a series of old batteries -- defensive positions where canons could be placed to fire on invading ships.

This is the entrance to one of those batteries, just west of the bridge.
