If you are in Denver, you really should visit St. Mark's Coffeehouse.
Five out of six rope-and-harness suppliers give it two thumbs up (or, ten thumbs up, as it were)....

@ Musée Mécanique (Cue pipe organ music and crazy laughter)
Its worth it to brave the crowds in Fisherman's Wharf to explore this funky museum. Part museum, more arcade, its free to wander through, and you're able to "play" a lot of the games. Some of the machines are games of skill as we're probably most used to, others you put a coin in and watch a scene animate. It's a lot like going through your eccentric old neighbor's basement: very cool and creepy at the same time. You can't help but wonder if some of those machines come alive at night (haven't you seen that movie?)...
Reminiscent of the crazy Girard collection at the International Folk Art Museum in Santa Fe.

I discovered we have naturally-occurring music-video lighting in our new apartment. Awesome.

Stockton St.
its a school night?
We've moved to a new neighborhood, and our commute to/from downtown now generally takes us through North Beach, making our bus ride just a little more interesting (until the novelty wears off, that is). Even on a Tuesday night the bars and restaurants are crowded: people are spilling out on the sidewalks, enjoying dinner/coffee/drinks at outdoor tables under cranked-up heat lamps. It seems North Beach is always on vacation.

We drove a couple of hours north of the city for a spontaneous overnight trip. This coastal area is ridiculously scenic...
