Photo of a z-drive tug assisting a green cargo ship in the port of Oakland.
Feeling tired and overwhelmed today, so here’s an old picture of some boats I saw a few years ago.

From West Oakland to Fruitvale, Melrose, and Elmhurst, these neighborhoods show how preservation can be a real value‑add for the city and the people who call it home.

The Feeling: Seeing a city "vision" where kids can ride safely is deeply moving. It’s an extraordinary reminder that our streets belong to the community and the future we build for them. ✌️🙏✨

A serene indoor "Living Sculpture" display on a wooden Sequoia plank. In the foreground, a large piece of iridescent blue Labradorite and jagged dark volcanic rocks sit beside a small ceramic bowl of tea. A Philodendron Mayoi with deeply lobed, skeletal green leaves grows in a glass semi-hydro vessel filled with LECA. The scene is warmly lit by a crackling fireplace and an amber Edison bulb, while a large window in the background shows a rainy, twilight view of the blue-toned Oakland Hills.
Another volatile week has closed
Pure, still gratitude for a moment of quiet
A Sunday night reset for the soul. In a world of "freaky" Philodendrons and historical wins, grounding ourselves in the present is the ultimate act of balance. 🪨🌿 Goodnight, Oakland. ✌️🙏🫶 #Wellness #LivingSculptures #EastBay
Aerial landscape view looking west from the summit of Mount Diablo, California, across rolling green hills layered in atmospheric haze toward the San Francisco Bay Area. The foreground shows dark green pine trees, giving way to wave after wave of emerald ridgelines dotted with scattered suburban development. In the far distance, approximately 30 miles away, the faint silhouette of the San Francisco skyline is visible on the left horizon, with the towers of the Golden Gate Bridge faintly discernible to the right, partially obscured by coastal haze. The sky is pale blue-white with thin overcast clouds. A small aircraft is barely visible near the top center of the frame.

What's your contingency/pivot?
My capacity changes without warning...
Plans rarely survive contact with reality.
Bailed on a ridge hike yesterday.
Urban parks still offer a lot and get you out of the box.
This is Alvarado Park: Richmond, CA

A sweeping panoramic view westward from the summit of Mount Diablo, California, at 3,849 feet. Rolling green and golden hills cascade into the hazy East Bay valleys below, with the San Francisco Bay visible as a faint shimmer in the distance. Wispy cirrus clouds streak across a vivid blue sky, framed in the upper right by the dark, gnarly branches and pine cones of a Coulter pine

Standing at the top of Mt. Diablo on a March afternoon, watching the East Bay valleys dissolve into the haze toward the Bay. One of the great views in all of California

Weird experience: I got to the Line G stop at the Salesforce Center just as the FS bus departed in front of us. Then, just after getting off the Line G bus on Solano, I cross the street and that same Line FS bus (not in service at that point) stops to let me cross.
