Fight me, San Francisco has the best airport. I was able to visit a small but inspiring and informative Afrofuturism exhibit, leave a message for my late husband at the Dia de los muertos installation and visit a branch of my favorite bookstore Green Apple Books. Great food choices too

Women*, they’ll pick up a hobby they haven’t engaged with since they were 11 years old rather than go to therapy.
*Me. No-one is more surprised than me how mind-clearing and relaxing this sudden interest in jigsaws has been.
Here, a nod to spooky season

For spooky season, I present this self-portrait-as-a-bat inkwell sculpted by the Divine Sarah Bernhardt, better known as an actress but also a damn fine visual artist with a penchant for the macabre

This morning of #NoKingsDay at the San Francisco Jazz Center, family matinee, Andre Thierry’s band. A festive mood, fantastic music, and a lot of people in the audience brought their protest signs for the march afterwards. I love my adopted city🌺

National Shrine of St Francis of Assisi, North Beach, San Francisco today. Annual Blessing of the Animals. 💕I think the young woman here had bunnies to be blessed. My cats had to make do with my agnostic but heartfelt benediction once I returned home
