11.20.13

Sebastian the artist painting at Linden Street figure drawing studio in Oakland.  He organizes Tuesday night sessions and is a great guy, offering beer, snacks, and a wonderful creative environment for fellow artists.  He also brews his own beer and makes great guacamole from avocados and lemons growing in his back yard. 

Lake Merritt at night.  A glowing necklace of light encircles the entire lake.  It is a beautiful sight, and must be wonderful for those who run here in the evening.  I'd like to run around Lake Merritt one day.



The Grand Lake Theater's colorful marque.  My friend's husband Darin Nellis' JFK film that he executive produced screened here that night.  It's a very good film shown in a beautiful old theater that is very much like SF's Castro Theater.  I saw pics on Yelp that show a man playing an old organ, too, just like at the Castro.

A mysterious old Victorian house I spotted on Lakeshore drive in Oakland.
