good saturdays are good to find; finally moving
We took good advantage of living in SF yesterday. Thanks to a playdate invite for Stella, Tammy and I had some time to zip around the city at our own pace, and do some shopping for our still empty new apartment. We got a great deal on a floor lamp - floor model with a slight defect. “50% off? Don’t mind if we do!”
My goal for the day was to see a stellar collection of photos being auctioned from the estate of Margaret W. Weston, which included several Edward Weston’s, plus Paul Strand, Ansel Adams, Man Ray, Robert Frank, Irving Penn, and Diane Arbus (The Twin’s are expected to fetch $500k - Bonus link: Interesting trivia/backstory on that photo.). (More pictures here.)
After that we were lucky to get a table at Blue Plate, now my favorite restaurant. Yum!
Today - I bought tickets for the Bright Eyes, Gillian Welch, and Jim James show at the Greek Theater in Berkeley. Can’t wait to see Mike Mogis rock in front of five thousand folks.
This week - I fly back to Lincoln on Wednesday night. Packing up the rest of our belongings in a U-haul on Thursday, and then hauling back to SF with my dad as co-pilot.
Can anyone reccomend a good web-based road-trip planner?
