pier 39 sea lions

a lone sea lion (also reminds me of porkchop)

making friends with a seagull

i had extra shrimp

reminded me of steve and nina

when i got back to st louis, i realized half of my pictures were of animals. for starters, the serrano hotel was a pet friendly hotel. and i couldn't help myself. i was like the pet-paparazzi. everytime a dog walked thru the lobby i reached for my camera. i'm pretty sure i won't be allowed back at that hotel. but it was worth it. the highlight was a little beagle that beared a striking resemblance to porkchop.

i also enjoyed the sealions at pier 39. wish i had video. the sound of their barking was overwhelming. i called jason from the docks and held the phone out to him so he could hear.

on the way back from pier 39, my mom and i stopped for some beer and shrimp at an outside cafe. i was mesmerized by the seagulls. what is my deal with animals??? i saved them some shrimp and made friends. i'm sure they will remember me if i ever return.

going to california.





"took my chances on a big jet plane
never let them tell you that they're all the same
the sea was red and the sky was grey
wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today
the mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
as the children of the sun began to wake"
from going to california by led zeppelin

tomorrow i leave for san francisco to attend the 4th annual sisters in survivorship retreat. i can't believe 4 years ago, i had chemo hair! looking forward to seeing my sistahs. looking forward to drinking some wine. looking forward to having a ball and laughter ringing up and down the hall.
