Second bell of the day
I saw the first “El Camino bell” of my journey by mission dolores. The bells were part of a mission reglorification project started in the 30s. Many of the stole or broken bells were replacedagain in the late 60s by the same bell manufacturer. In 1992, see a local man decided to take it upon…

The chicken coup
I found this amazing restaurant in daly city so I had stop for a salad and a root beer. “To go” is not an option. They use the same brown glasses that I remember from the Woolworth’s cafeteria from the 70s. This whole place is living in the 70s. And it’s a very good thing.…

Top o’ the hill
Finaly out of san francisco. This city is bigger than you’d think. So far so good. My feet are a little sore but no blisters. I realized having my camera in my backpack wasn’t a good idea. I was stopping to get my camera out every 30 seconds. So I stopped at the lucky gift…

Mission Dolores
Mission Dolores was founded in 1776 and was a failure from the get-go. Measles epidemics and cold, order foggy weather weakened the padres chances at building their minions. Most Indians figured out pretty quickly that Christianity sucked and fled across the bay to frolic in the warmer climate and among their fun-loving brethren of the…

Everything in my bag
Here’s everything I’ll be taking in my backpack with me (clothes on my back not pictured) on my four day walk on the El Camino Real from San Francisco to Morgan Hill. All except for the Sidekick, I forgot to put that in the picture, and the camera that I took this photo with!

For years I kept a music website about indie music. It was my baby. I learned html on that site and changed my career through it. It has been a good friend. But I haven’t kept it updated for years and I suppose it’s time to move on. I will miss you, dear friend. Update:…

How to choose music
How do you choose what to put on your iPod when you only have 4.5 gigs of space? How ridiculous is it that this is a hard task for me? Do I take the 18 hour long audio file of Moby Dick? Or do I concentrate on music? And after all the adding and deleting,…

To Alanna From Tom from Alanna

Chunks of words
Most things I write are open to eradicating. But this chunk.. I think I’ll keep. I worry that I have generally crappy genes that shouldnâ??t be allowed to swim in the gene pool with the rest of the human race. I imagine all our faults, packaged up into one super-monster. Weâ??ll end up with a…
