Somewhere in there, (10 days after the fourth, according to the pictures’ metadata), we took the Jackpot out for a cruise around Treasure Island. For the first half, I rode out on the bow, and took photos, and then for the second, I went to the back, because I didn’t want to fall in. I’m used to the ferry, which is a really big catamaran; two hulls means they’re more stable, and a much bigger boat also means the same. This was… a bit different. Not bad, but bouncing up and down 3-4 feet over every wave and getting splashed with seawater a lot. My nikon got a workout that day, and so did my free arm, holding on to the railing.

Man, street photography, why can’t I quit you? You’re so problematic from so many perspectives, but it feels so good. Also, how SOMA is an Audi with that vanity plate?

For the first couple of months here in the bay, you could find us at bar trivia at least once a week. It’s a good way to get out of the house an dnot feel like you’re just wasting time. I may have mentioned it on the social medias. Anyway, it’s nice to sometimes win some beer some times (2 or 3 times, but who’s counting?), and have a good excuse to go drink it. Anyway, the bar we go to for trivia is just a stone’s throw from the rockridge BART, which has a nice view of the bay, the bridge, and the city beyond. I seem to take a picture of it everytime I’m there, but they don’t usually work. I do like this one, though.

These guys, seriously. I don’t still wish I was at EY with the things I’m hearing (RIP EY Buffalo), but the team had talent and personality to spare.

This is how I spent my 4th of July; on Seemant’s boat, drinking and waiting for fireworks that never came. Or, when they did, were far off in the distance (that shot was through my 500mm lens, and the only one that was remotely sharp). There was drinking, and there were photos, so I was pretty happy with how it all came out. This was the second time the Jillpot sailed, incidentally. It’s now known also as the “truth boat.” Weather it’s know for that beacuse you think you’re going to sink and become deathbed honest or not is up for question; I have not sailed on it under either name.
