The Dish
No that's not some girl. The Dish is a 3.7 mile loop west of Stanford. You get there (Junipero Serra Blvd & Stanford Ave) and the first thing you see is the haystack arts and then the hill. After you "run" up that hill you get nice views of the Bay. Other nice loops: UCLA outerloop; Shoreline loop; Lake Merced loop; Golden Gate loop (12th & Anza through the buffalo field pass the windwill out to Pacific Hwy back); Marina Green up Fort Mason to Ferry Building loop back; Monkey Bar in Marina Green through Chrissy field touch Hopper's Hand at Fort Point loop back. I have to say though that first hill at The Dish beats them all.
Summer Feastings
Maybe I'm getting older but I can't digest food as well anymore. Went to Castro with Derek last night for Mongolian bbq. For the next two hours that food just sat in my stomache. Afterward we stopped at Books Inc. and I browsed through a couple of books, even read a couple chapters of Better Off. The whole time I had to walk around the bookstore — passing the psychology, religion, children's book, non-fiction, fiction, sci-fi, the magazine racks, and then back to psychology. I was doing my old loops...around the bookstore.
Week 1: I am paying for ~ 3.5 Big Macs (576 cal/serving)

I was actually busy all last week. I was assigned a big mapping project for the mayor's office.
The goatee stays, bro...until further notice.
