It is 7:38 on Thursday morning at the end of June. I’m sitting at Stauf’s Cafe in Grandview enjoying the cool morning air and people watching. The people watching is interesting because there is a difference between the population here and that of San Francisco; it has been a long time since I’ve seen Ohio…… Continue reading Ohio – 6.28.2018

Ohio – 6.24.2018
I’m at Stauf’s cafe on a quiet Sunday morning and have had my mocha can chocolate chip scone. I like getting here early while the sun is just rising over the houses across the road and the weather is cool. I arrived at 7:58 and wondered why everyone was just standing around. It turns out…… Continue reading Ohio – 6.24.2018
Ohio – 6.23.2018
It has been a small adventure so far. I hailed a Lyft but forgot it is Pride in SF today so the first couple of drivers cancelled on me and there were none around in Pacifica. Finally Flavio came but drove right past me. I called him and he turned around. It was apparent he…… Continue reading Ohio – 6.23.2018
Classic songs discovered in 2016
Two songs my Dad introduced me to in 2016 that I really like. Both also happen to be about or occur in San Francisco. https://youtu.be/XUwUp-D_VV0 Little Boxes – Pete Seeger This is such a fun little ditty.

Journal Entry 12.18.2016

When I step outside to look at the stars I see Orion, faithfully in the southern hemisphere confirming that it is the latter half of the year. There…… Continue reading Journal Entry 12.18.2016
Journal Entry – 11.8.2016
It is 5:40 AM. Daylight savings time just ended two days ago so I really don’t get to take credit for being up early since the biological clock thinks it is 6:40 AM. I always enjoy this time of year but not as much as I do in Ohio. In Ohio the season actually changes…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 11.8.2016
Growing up in Golfview Woods – My Memoir
They say that old houses have memories and a distinct atmosphere created by the various inhabitants and what has occurred inside its walls over the decades. Time passes, children grow and families move away; yet each one leaves something behind which add to the character of the house. It could be something material such as…… Continue reading Growing up in Golfview Woods – My Memoir
Journal entry – In Oakland
I’m sitting in the 555 12th St. lobby where the faint smell of industrial cleaner and other general, large building lobby smells remind me of my first office job in Columbus, Ohio. I’d go to work with my Dad early in the morning and was intimidated by all the Very Serious looking people in their…… Continue reading Journal entry – In Oakland
