Strawberry Days

Cut It Out


Now taking appointments.
Christmas 2009



This Party's Off the Hook!


The BIG 30
Wow....really? 30 years old! We celebrated with a birthday cake from Granite Bakery. One of the best I've ever had (that wasn't chocolate). It was a white cake with bavarian cream and strawberries in between the 4 layers. Covered with whipped cream and blackberries. Mmm, mmm, good.

San Francisco Treat



Some of them had amazing views in the downtown area. You can see the Oakland Bridge in the background.

This is a closer look at the bridge. I stayed at this property for the first week. This is were I worked most of my visit.

This is the roof deck of the 2nd place I stayed at on Mission and 4th street in downtown.

I had a place on the 29th floor which had amazing views.

I only had one day off after working many long days. And what would you expect I do? Rent a bike, of course. Since Lily and I had visited San Francisco earlier this year, I was a little familiar with the area.

So off I went. First to the Embarcadero. I rode out onto one of the fishing piers and got a decent view of the city from there.

I came across an outside market and found a spot to ice skate in the city. Notice the palm trees in the background. You don't see that everyday.


Here is a spot, which was up a steep hill from the base to the top of the bridge, where I could look back and see just how far I'd gone. Great view of the city and beach I rode along to get to this point.

Here I am at another tourist spot. Bus loads of people looking for spots to get a shot of this famous landmark.

There are a two ways to cross the bridge. The bay side allows pedestrians and bikes at certain times of the day. The ocean side allows only bikes. So I crossed under the bridge to get to the bike path and found a dirt trail that follows the shoreline. I followed this for just a bit to get a look at the Pacific Ocean before turning back.

Bike traffic accross the bridge was busy. A lot of recreational cyclists hurried by. I found a lookout point and took a moment to enjoy the views. After crossing to the north side of the bridge, I made my way down a winding road into the town of Sausalito. This was a fun, but chilly downhill ride. I couldn't help but think how challenging the ride back up would be.


But the burgers are BIG on flavor.

I ordered mine to go and made my way over to the dock.
