Here’s the cute glasses case that one of my daughters knit for me years ago. Glasses are alive, they have legs so they can run and hide. [New info: It was Georgia<\/i> who knit it, it was the first thing she ever knit, she made at “Big Three Days” at Seven Hills School in Lynchburg, Virginia, in the 7th grade.]<\/p>\n

Yesterday we went to a party to celebrate Rudy and Penny’s engagement at this great people’s park called the “Albany Bulb”.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is a spot in the SF Bay behind the Golden Gate Fields racetrack. It was once a dump, but now hipsters assemble art there, people walk dogs, and wild vegetation rules.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A bunch of Rudy and Penny’s colorful friends were there; we carried in loads of food and beer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

August and Laird have banana-shaped cell-phone holders that Laird invented.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And I think Rose said she’s a belly-dancer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I gave Penny a plastic jellyfish that bounces on a string.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The dogs were retrieving sticks from the water. I love how the one on shore is being a spectator.<\/p>\n

Mighty Slug was there, and I got a great little 1 Meg MPEG movie of him shaking. Click here to view movie<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’ve always been fascinated with Diane Arbus’s pictures, of how the subjects are always kind of looking askance at Diane as she takes the picture. I managed to get a photo somewhat in this style of Shannon and her tattoo; I put it in black and white to enhance the Arbus look.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It was a great party. Yay Rudy and Penny.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
