I've Just Seen a Face

I've finally gotten rid of the crutches (and the cane that I used for a few days as well), and am able to get out a bit. Not for too long, as I'm still wearing the boot, which makes for uncomfortable walking after a while, but some. While I've been under house arrest, a number of new pieces of artwork have sprung up in my neighborhood. Like this, for instance.

Lunch at Mission Rock

Here's one that garnered a little attention on some of the local blogs. This is the waterfront restaurant known as Mission Rock, which has been completely redone and reopened with new owners and a much-needed sprucing up. Good menu, great place to enjoy some oysters and a beer at the edge of the SF Bay.
