The Hayward Fault and I have beef now.

Late-night earthquake casualties. We will rebuild.

No wonder it was scary, it was two miles from my house.

That was probably the strongest earthquake I’ve ever experienced.

Amazing. Couldn't resist inverting it. #BelieveInFilm

Been working in the @sfchronicle.com archives until my wrist gets stronger and I’ve found the most incredible things, most that haven’t seen the light of day in almost one hundred years. This one is from the 1939 World’s Fair on Treasure Island.

❤️🔥 HOT OFF THE PRESSES! 🔥❤️ COYOTE Media Collective is live!! We’re so incredibly proud of this smart, fierce, unapologetic Bay Area media project. Dive in, see what we’ve been building, read our stories, and join the pack! coyotemedia.org

It’s been five years since we woke up to apocalyptic orange skies and everyone stopped for a moment and stared at the sky. Five years since @barackobama.bsky.social shared my @sfchronicle.com photos of that day, a fun fact that will follow me forever.

Crow show in the front yard this evening.

Still on leave, still only able to sit back and watch as my garden grows wild. It’s not so much a garden this year as it is an ecosystem.

my bestie @nuala.bsky.social and my friend crush @emmaruthless.bsky.social are talking all things @coyotemedia.org this morning on @rollovereasy.org so tune in!

I broke my wrist two weeks ago and have read about six books already since I can’t do much else. My TBR is running low so drop your recommendations below! 👇 #📚💙

Legendary songwriter Joan Baez hadn't sat down to write poems in many years. "Lately, the more I read the daily news, the more I’ve felt compelled to write again. Lining up words into sentences that attempt to make sense of the chaos is my bulwark against a creeping feeling of despondency."

Spent a recent afternoon sitting down with Joan Baez’s on her porch in Woodside beneath old oak trees while she read me her newest poems. Every day on this job is unique, but this one was a dream. See the full videos on @sfchronicle.com (gift link 🎁)

Can I offer you some garden pictures in these trying times?

Evening garden check 🌜

hi earthquake!!

Had a lot of fun covering BottleRock yesterday for @sfchronicle.com. Being that close to Green Day was definitely a career highlight! bit.ly/3ZA1ndl

San Francisco is best viewed from the water, specifically while riding a paddle board. And photographing from a kayak isn't for the faint of heart. A very nice Monday with @peterhartlaub.bsky.social for @sfchronicle.com 🚣 bit.ly/4ji3sBN

A salute to @jachristian.bsky.social (left), who somehow got the perfect angle every time WHILE PADDLING in a kayak in choppy bay water. Constantly in awe of the @sfchronicle.com photo staff. Gift link so you can see all the photos here 🎁 ⬇️ www.sfchronicle.com/totalsf/arti...

1,000 seals can't be wrong. This Dogpatch small business just moved into a World War II-era warehouse, and offers the most mystical tours of the bay. Another #TotalSF adventure with @jachristian.bsky.social, whose photos are soooo excellent here. 🌁 ❤️ www.sfchronicle.com/totalsf/arti...

Had a very fun morning at the office with @jachristian.bsky.social!! Crane Cove Park rules. Dogpatch Paddle rules. Running into random seals & heron rules. #TotalSF 🌁 ❤️

My Romanesco finally arrived!

Worshippers gathered at San Francisco's Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption this afternoon to pray and celebrate the news that Cardinal Robert Prevost of the United States has been named as Pope Leo XIV. More on @sfchronicle.com bit.ly/4d92N3X

I’ve been out of town a lot but here’s a garden update 🌱 The cabbage is massive and peas finally have their flowers. My leafy greens are going wild, I haven’t picked them because of the spider living in the leaves. It’s almost time to harvest the garlic. My blackberry is finally climbing the wall.

Benji always finds his light.

This week is the 7 year anniversary of #TotalMuni2018 — where @heatherknightsf.bsky.social and I rode every Muni line in one day! Changed my viewpoint of the city & transit forever. Grateful to Heather, @jachristian.bsky.social and the Chronicle team & all the friends we made along the way. 🚍 🌁 ❤️

More morning garden art 🌼

There’s a very sweet Johnson jumping spider living in my lettuce who I’m trying to befriend. It watches me while I read in the garden and is just the most curious little thing ❤️

Things in the garden this morning that felt like art.

I put together this fun video of @peterhartlaub.bsky.social exploring Sunset Dunes, San Francisco's newest park on the former Great Highway. Come for his impressive piano recital, stay for the laughs @sfchronicle.com youtu.be/U9OfHCSa_wI?...

Pianos, horses, murals and so much more 🐙 I had a lovely time wandering around Sunset Dunes, San Francisco's newest park along the Great Highway. It officially opens April 12, so check out @peterhartlaub.bsky.social's guide before you go! bit.ly/4lK0c4L @sfchronicle.com

Another A++ video from @jachristian.bsky.social, who is so good at this. Jessica accurately captures my earnest dorkiness. I’m like a less jacked Huell Howser here. (The keyboard stylings were unplanned. The human brain’s capacity to remember a piano recital from 1981 is 🤯) youtu.be/U9OfHCSa_wI

The new Great Highway park is a contentious flashpoint of an open space. But when you actually arrive the vibes are immaculate. 10 ways to explore Sunset Dunes, San Francisco’s newest park. My fun guide with @jachristian.bsky.social! 🌁☀️❤️ Gift link!! 🎁 www.sfchronicle.com/projects/202...

There's a young Minke whale beached in Emeryville right now. Marine Mammal Center says they've been watching its strange behavior for 5 days, but today's beaching is a very dire situation. This is only the fifth confirmed sighting of a Minke whale in the bay since 2009 @sfchronicle.com
