My home page was getting extremely stale.  So away it went -- about 30 minutes ago I decided on a new minimalist design both in terms of graphics and content.  But I did add a totally new Tunes page with MP3s of songs I've written and recorded over the years.  Feel free to download away.

I've known about the San Francisco Sundial located sorta near Stern grove for years.  But I never bothered to go check it out just because, frankly, I thought it might suck.  It certainly wouldn't be as cool as the bad-ass Jantar Mantar which I visited in India, and isn't really on the beaten path, so I never made it out there.  Well luckily my friend Charmaine got us to attempt a 49 mile ride around San Francisco so I suggested the sundial as a pit stop on our ride for no other reason than it could be interesting, it was far, and it was a destination.

Well it turned out to be one of the funnest attractions on the ride!  First off, it was much bigger than I expected.  Secondly, you can climb on it and there aren't even any signs posted to scold you about it!  Kids and adults alike can climb up the gnomon to get a good view of the neighborhood, and then slide down the smooth surface.  I'll admit that this wasn't the most mind blowing thing I've seen in SF, but it's another one of those unique things in town that make me happy to call this city home.

Check out the pics.  It was a fantastic day.
