the tides

This December View is where the tide comes into and goes out of the marshes at Crissy Field in The Presidio. Taken a few days ago.

Today, I had jury duty and had to go down there in person and sit in the big room with dozens of other people for three hours until they let us all go.

It was 80 degrees in the room and very crowded. Ugh. But at least it was civil court and much easier to get to than criminal court, and it's a new building so the room is nicer as well.

Plus I got to leave after three hours and did not have to go through any questioning by lawyers. When that happens, they always pass on me - I think because I spent too much time in my life reading law books.

Anyway, now I am back home and have a headache. It's such a perfect day out there though, I will go back out in a while for a walk in the 'hood at least.

Hope so anyway.

It's the same for me when I have jury duty. They question me and throw me out.

But, they'll keep the idiot who showed up in tie-dyes, read People magazine the whole time, and had no opinion on anything.

I suspect they don't want anyone with a couple of brain cells to rub together because they're easier to manipulate and predict.

So beautiful! It looks like Alcatraz is washing out with the tide.
I love that part of the beach in particular on hot days, when all the little kids and dogs are splashing around.
