What's here?

• Mom & Dad's September, 2002 visit - Surprisingly, after five years of school, I hadn't been to Alcatraz. We took a long day and hiked to Coit Tower and on to Fisherman's Wharf, where we toured the WWII submarine USS Pampanito before boarding the ferry to Alcatraz. The place is amazing, especially on a pleasant fall day.
• Twin Peaks - To kill some time on a wonderfully sunny February 2, 2003, Kim and I hiked from the Mission District to the top of Twin Peaks, which at 910 feet above sea level, boasts what many consider the U.S.'s premier "urban view".

• January, 2003 visit to the San Francisco Zoo

• February, 2003 visit to the Dog Show at Cow Palace
