Veterans Day

Clic sur l'image pour l'agrandir

Le 11 novembre
is still remembered across Europe and in the U.K. as "armistice day," signaling the end of that mass carnage known as World War I. Aux États-Unis, the date is Veterans Day, honoring all who have served in our Military. "Louis" took this image of the resting place of many of our veterans at the Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno, CA.

To those of you who have served and are now serving our country in our military, we salute you.

Crazy golfers!

With wind coming off the entrance to the Golden Gate at better than 30 m.p.h., a low wind chill factor and fog, these crazy golfers are playing a round at Lincoln Park just above Land's End in San Francisco. What were "Louis" et Mme la Vache doing out in such weather? Looking for Monday's Odd Shot is the answer!

The King of the World

Across the street from the house that can't make up its mind what color it wants to be, this cat, perched upon its sofa back throne, surveys his (her?) kingdom, obviously convinced that the entire world is his.

ABC Mercredi - "P" - le Penseur

ABC Wednesday - "P" - le Penseur - the Thinker
Clic sur l'image pour l'agrandir

A copy of Rodin's famous «le Penseur», the Thinker, sits shivering in the courtyard of San Francisco's Palace of the Legion of Honor at Lincoln Park on a chilly, windy, foggy afternoon, thinking "How is it that I'm stuck sitting here in this chill wind and fog?!"

The Palace of the Legion of Honor houses a large collection of Rodin's work. Another large collection of Rodin is at Stanford University.
