See You Later Crocodile

I'll be spending the weekend in San Francisco, so there won't be any spectacular blog posts for the next few days. That's probably okay since I pissed off one of my regular blog readers with the "Luvaas Again" post, and my only other reader is upset with me because I posted a blog about his garage yesterday.

To commemorate the Planning Commission denial of cell-tower service to north east Chico last night I'll be staying under Sutro Tower (location shown above). My mother-in-law rents a small house under the tower in the midst of a eucalyptus grove. It's very scenic, unless you look directly overhead and start wondering about the stability of large towers during earthquakes.

My mother-in-law has been moving a lot lately. That can create pressures in our relationship, because the only thing worse than carrying something heavy is carrying something heavy for someone else. But she also collects wicker furniture. That relieves a lot of the pressure. And she got rid of her piano, which has made moving her downright pleasant.

So this weekend my family and I will be at the SF zoo which has been renovated over the last several years. I'm going to see an IMAX movie (the 300, sans the kid) and might take the subway there (did you know SF had a subway?). There may even be time for dim sum (Chinese food breakfast), a museum (DeYoung-MOMA?), or the Exploratorium. And to finish it off were going to one of the nation's top sushi restaurants on Sunday.

While I'm out of town feel free to give me a call on the cell phone. I'm pretty sure I'll get good reception where I'm staying.
