I recently got a Nikon D5000, my first foray into the world of DSLR cameras. I don’t know much about photography yet, but it helps to spend some time with friends who are into it. So last Saturday Dave, Jess, and I went to a skate park in Petrero Hill to snap some shots. I’ve included some below. (We came across the van on the way to the park.)





Here are some shots from Dave. He has an awesome shot of Jess that he got using his magic flash. He also documented us climbing over the park’s fence after we got locked in. Oops!
This sign appears on the door that leads to our apartment building’s garage. Although the Landlord doesn’t live in the building, he spends every day in the garage/workshop area, where the recycling lessons and laundry lessons can be found. The Landlord told me that the sign in the pictures below applies to humans as well as dogs.


While Jill and I are upstanding tenants when it comes to recycling, we evidently lack laundry skills, and were most likely the cause of the overloading and spilled-detergent lessons as well as a two-week “lock down” (not pictured) of the entire laundry room. Let it be noted that we do, however, know how to clean a filter.



This is the first in a series of posts that capture real-life lessons provided by my landlord.
