  Ride Waves, it’s fun I’ve got a few pairs of Yucca Fins and a few DaFin fins. I’m on a run of wearing the DaFins, mostly. But I keep a close eye on Yucca Fins. They make killer bodysurfing fins. They recently released a video with some folks wearing their fins riding in a Palm Springs wave pool. Some...

  Sunrise at Hospitality Point and Drawing Moo Deng I started the day with a trip to the airport. Me and Gwen dropped Kelly off. Early. After we dropped her off, half hour to sunup, we went to Hospitality Point. It’s a bit tricky to get there. You can boat from there but I couldn’t (or rather wouldn’t) begin a swim from there. It’s...

  No, bridges don’t float. Some Coronado Bay Bridge history. I watched video of the Francis Scott Key Bridge falling this morning. It’s horrifying. There is a connection to The Wire. Season 2 was set at the ports. David Simon, humanist and writer and creator on The Wire, tweeted this: Thinking first of the people on the bridge. But the mind wanders to a port...

  I’m quoted in San Diego Magazine The Trouble with Trash Lamb Rising rents and a stagnating collector market spell trouble for small San Diego galleries and the art scenes they support—but hope remains: “I gave to Trash Lamb Gallery [because] it is talented independent local living artists sharing their art and vision of where we live, and I want to see...
