Sunning sunrises and sunsets AND the supermoon. Skies will be gorgeous across Northern California the next couple of days. Get outside! #CAwx

Claude the albino alligator is dead
My story with @aidinvaziri.bsky.social
Lots of cool facts from biologists I've interviewed. Claude knew his name & briefly had a pit-mate named "Bonnie." Most common question from guests: "Is he real?"
RIP to an SF icon

Barack Obama dined at Quince in San Francisco, one of the Bay Areaβs only three-Michelin-star restaurants, on Wednesday evening.
Obama walked into the Jackson Square restaurant around 7 p.m., shortly after Marc Benioff, the CEO of Salesforce; itβs unclear if they dined together.

What a treat!
Went to the @sfchronicle.com archive this a.m. to scan some 1906 earthquake images and retired librarian Bill Van Niekerken & @thebiscuitdan.bsky.social were both there working on separate projects.
(Bill still comes in for freelance work.)
Love a bustling archive!

A person sprinkles sumac over a pizza at Reem's in San Francisco, angled upward towards the employee and taken with flash on a disposable film camera.
Two women embrace each other in the kitchen of Reem's in San Francisco. One looking at the camera and one turned away from it while another woman smiles behind them. Taken with flash on a disposable film camera.
I had fun working with a disposable camera for my contribution to @sfchronicle.com's famed Top 100 list. I've loved scrolling through the project and seeing how everyone else approached it. Stay tuned next week for the top 50! π§βπ³ bit.ly/4hXmCfx

The Chronicle's Top 100 list is back!
From a fine dining bonanza from a renowned chef to a bakery serving astonishing tortas trussed in plastic wrap, these are our top Bay Area restaurants.
βI think you should just try as hard as you can. And if you fail
Itβs fine.β

We saw cows, missed trains, visited 50 stations, covered 131.2 miles of track and sampled three @bart.gov bathrooms. For journalism.
(The cost for the entire trip? $9.90)
Read about the day @thebiscuitdan.bsky.social & I spent without leaving the BART system.

Thank you to the @sfchronicle.com for highlighting one of our many downtown destinations! San Mateo, like many other downtowns, has something for everyone! www.sfchronicle.com/totalsf/arti....

An hour short of the record but had a fabulous time flying through the Bay Area with @thebiscuitdan.bsky.social and so many transit lovers who joined us.
Our victory is the friends we met along the way! π π

Pupusas. Parklets. A working cobbler.
