Summer seems to be here early – I don’t expect warm weather to last more than a couple days until after mid-September. And we are loving it! Last Sunday we went out after a visit to R’s mom in Moraga to chat and catch up with friends at Lookout, the former location of the Metro, at the corner of 16th and Noe on Market. It was a benefit for women’s soccer, and it was a fun crowd. A few too many drinks were had (and jello shots – see below) but we had a good time and afterward the fog *still* wasn’t blowing in.
Jello shots anyone?
Late note – minutes after posting this, the fickle finger of fog began to poke its way over Twin Peaks.
