Coit Tower at Dusk, San Francisco

Below and Behind the famous tower.

After living just outside of San Francisco for the last few years we finally decided to catch the tower at dusk tonight. It was pretty clear in Marin when we left the house but the minute we emerged through the tunnel it was nothing but fog. You have to love summers in San Francisco.

I remember the last time we visited the tower parking was pretty prime and it was no different this time. Thanks to Mitch's SF parking skills we squeezed into a space right below the tower and took the little hike up. Even around 8:30 pm the place was still busy.

Fourth of July Sparkle

I think Sparkle Writing is a tough art form (or at least you need to practice to get good at it).

This year we spent the holiday with my family who happened to live in a county that allows fireworks (this was our first year not spending it in San Francisco ). Although fireworks aren't as cool as they use to be many years ago, we still had a lot of fun lighting things on fire.

My favorite moment was watching my Dad run around with a sparkler in his hand trying to write something.

It was priceless!
