Through the Gate

15 July I spent the afternoon with a friend walking the Golden Gate Bridge.

The Bridge with Fort Point in the foreground:

We made it to the other side... Marin County sign:

After the walk, we hung out at the Roundhouse Cafe to drink some Cocoa..

...and then watched one more ship pass beneath the bridge.

I am several in right now. School kept me busy (many of these titles are things I read for school or because of papers I was writing.

Most books below I've acquired at book sales over the last year and picked up at used bookstores when shopping for other books. I don't have them all gathered in one spot, but there's enough to give one an idea of what I'll be keeping busy with the next couple months:

My current reads (including a library book):

and several of the books I hope to read:

Right now I"m having trouble relaxing enough to feel comfortable reading. I keep thinking I have homework I should be doing, so there's the relaxing and not feeling guilty for reading for pleasure right now. Hopefully, I can get it together & hurry up & relax!
