When luch came around today, I walked around several miles looking at all the crowded places and finally picked up a cup of fresh fruit from Starbucks. 17,054 steps so far today.RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1512448163402185409.post-65200213349229254462012-12-05T12:40:04.014-09:002012-12-05T12:40:04.014-09:00How do you keep your mind on work when there is so...How do you keep your mind on work when there is so little time and so much food...Martha https://www.blogger.com/profile/02785787084073523841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1512448163402185409.post-73543108686306562172012-12-05T11:23:41.279-09:002012-12-05T11:23:41.279-09:00Thank you, The salad was very good but I also love...Thank you, The salad was very good but I also love beets.<br /><br />The snow doesn't seem to be a negative.

I raised the ISO to 800 and leaned against a post and took several pictures in an attempt to get one that wan't too shaky. I will take a look at the link as that sounds really small.<br /><br />Baker City and Joseph only had 3G connectivity anyway and it was pretty slow. There was no Verizon data service in Joseph. I don't have a 4G phone but am completely satisfied with the 3G service but have been very impressed with the Verizon 4G service.

I have a small one which has a unique way of folding which makes it very small for what it is. I was always meaning to Blog about it. It will fit inside most backpacks, and I can also put it in my jacket's inner pocket.<br /><br />It is a Sirui, and you can read<br /><a href="http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1116136" rel="nofollow">about it here</a><br /><br />The Arca swiss plate was too large, so I swapped it out for a smaller, cheaper head which makes it shorter<br /><br />I wished I had a 4G phone. I can tether mine but it was very slow in Baker City.

When I was here last summer, I was tempted to try lane splitting but didn't have the nerve. I'm so glad that I don't live here anymore.

The way to cope with San Francisco ( and I drove 18 wheelers there) is to treat it as a number of connected villages. The bay area is a continent if you want o cross it by infernal combustion. In addition to Verizon California also has a motorcycle secret weapon - lane splitting.Conchscooterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08016331487463993200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1512448163402185409.post-40410168031563346362012-12-05T07:51:36.379-09:002012-12-05T07:51:36.379-09:00The night time shots turned out beautiful Richard....The night time shots turned out beautiful Richard. I really like the trolly one.<br /><br />Hmmm that beet salad looks pretty tasty. I think not only is SF known for food, but for walking. We walked more than 11 miles one day when we were there, but you walking over 20 is incredible. No wonder you are tired.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.com
