From: John Larkin on 2 Jun 2010 14:55 Shot from our conference room: ftp://jjlarkin.lmi.net/Sun_1.jpg Somebody covered the billboard across the street with plywood, and now two guys are working with chisels and mallets to strip away the darker surface layer and make an image. We rented out one window to a time-lapse photographer, who will eventually produce a video ad for the sponsor. $500 will fund a pretty nice barbeque. The lighthouse is part of the cafe/car wash. I don't know why they need a lighthouse. Across the street is another lighthouse, part of the u-store business. Goodwill, on a third corner, has sort of a lighthouse too. John

Oh, hey, gas is 6c cheaper out here :-) They hacked the trees last week, for better photography I guess. Gas does cost more in downtown SF than where you (or I) live. The car wash top-end detailing job is fabulous, for about $250. It's worth it if you're trying to sell a car. The camera in the conference room goes SNAP! every 30 seconds. It freaked me out at first, after hours. He's taken over 12,000 4Kx4K images so far. Here's the guy's site: http://chadrichard.typepad.com/ Check out the fog in the Big Sur flic. John
