  1. You know it was a good weekend when you wake up smiling Monday morning. Even better, it’s a @Nov_Project_SF day. #grateful

  2. Today was the 1 year anniversary of the release of the film Tomorrowland.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomorrowland_%28film%29

    Critics disliked it and the general public ignored it.

    I, on the other hand, both enjoyed it, and found that the film connected various disparate thoughts that I had considered.

    It took me almost three months after its release for me to see the film, and then, I saw it on a flight from San Francisco to Paris, and rewatched it several times.

    Seeing Tomorrowland was one of the two most impactful things for me last year. Now that a year has passed since its release, I’m going to write about the film, bit by bit, explaning what I got out of it, and why it could be considered the best film of 2015.

  3. a jpg. 10km+ run/walk from Crissy field, along the coast, to Baker Beach, back up to Lands End, around to the Sutro Baths, then Ocean Beach for a brief bonfire stop before getting açai bowls in the sunset. Had no idea I was going to do this when I woke up today. Grateful for running friends with simple plans, encouragement, and being open to a detour and tasty destination.

  4. a jpg. How I spent most of my Saturday: @teamhandstand's #TheSFHunt with “Team New England” (Got 11th/~275!). Special Thanks to Wayne Grout for the early morning just-in-time bicycle repair help (and tube replacement lesson).

    Counting the bike ride from home to Sports Basement in the Marina, and the ride after our last riddle to the after party, and then home, I bicycled ~45-50 miles. More than I’ve ever done in a day. Grateful for muscles that didn’t complain.

    Sun, smiles, teammate bonding, adventures on the beach, in parks, finishing up on the bay at sunset.

    Thank you teammates, @teamhandstand, and all the volunteers for an amazing day.

  11. a jpg. Sometimes you have to take a midday beach break, soak your feet in the cold Pacific on an especially warm day, and absorb a couple of hours of solar energy (with sunscreen of course). Grateful to live a mere 15 minute drive from this, and fellow beach friends that also "get it". #latergram #nofilter
