Here our cameras caught up with Madison S, aka “The Monk,” alone in her room in a rare moment of calm. Due to a volatile temper and unpredictable behavior, Madison is no stranger to solitary confinement. She is a known charmer, so we were careful not to let her easy smile fool us. Folks around these parts know to approach Madison carefully. Especially after a nap.
So, as it turns out, not only am I NOT the only creative person in my house, I might just be the least creative. Below are 3 of the things I woke up to this morning.
Anyone that knows me knows that my birthday has always been one of my favorite days of the year, but this Father’s Day thing has real potential to surpass it.
So far, it’s been amazing, starting with this video. You have to see it. I was blown away the first time I watched. Then, in an entirely unrelated event, something got in my eyes and they started to water a bit. Weird.
Click here or on the pic to watch the video. Go ahead, it’s short. Pay close attention starting at about the 1:03 mark, for a special sound bite from Madison.
Doin’ our tourist thing. Rodeo Beach, Marin Headlands. When you’ve got a beautiful day, a beautiful setting, and two beautiful girls, it’s hard not get at least one beautiful photo.
This one was the most beautiful-est of them all.
In honor of its 75th Birthday, I thought I’d share some of my favorite photos—and memories—of the Golden Gate Bridge.
I’m pretty sure I’m the only one who has ever taken a picture of it.
(I should probably Google that)

Bike ride across the bridge. A must-do if you’re visiting SF. Even if it means wearing these awesome helmets.

At Twin Peaks. San Francisco is smaller than most think, if you’re high enough, you can see the bridge from just about anywhere (meaning altitude, settle down hippies).
As promised, these days you’ll find us out living like tourists. Here’s our most recent trip to Half Moon Bay.
