alisha is an amazing kind of friend, who always comes up with reasons to hang out. friendships like hers are great for people like me who love to get together, but are too lame to initiate anything. today her plan involved meeting up in mill valley at the head of the tennessee valley trail, where me, randall, alisha, nick, niki, leon, and little ira went on a wee hike (if you can call it that, it's more like a nice walk) to tennessee beach.
the walk was nice, the weather sort of perfect (sunny, warm but with a breeze, and a nice mist once we got to the beach), and the company fantastic. afterwards we went to san rafael and ate some delicious puerto rican food. the fried mashed plantains smothered in cheese were all kinds of awesome.
later, after i ended the perfect afternoon with a fabulous nap on the couch, samshrew stopped by to show off her new toy. she's been talking about buying a honda fit for months and months now (you know, so long that you start to doubt she's really going to buy one) and finally pulled the trigger. she got a good deal and can now drive to my house to hang out. congrats samshrew!
now for some more photo fun!
