How to read a novel in two days

It's easy: spend 4½ hours on trains, ferries, and buses. The return trip from San Rafael yesterday took almost two hours, half on a bus and half on the BART.

Long day, will report later

I had a great day, met some interesting people, patted a lot of dogs (don't tell Cassie), and expanded the list of breweries I need to visit in the Bay Area. That said: I'm pooped. I will say, being on multiple public conveyances for several hours did wonders to my enjoyment of Echopraxia, which I am about to finish. Good thing I brought two other books and the last two issues of The Atlantic with me.

Made it to SFO

I'm back in Millbrae, Calif., for the second time this year. I love this little hotel right by the Caltrain and BART, and I love that Millbrae is only one stop from the airport.

I'm traveling to the Bay Area today to see family and, very likely, a couple of breweries. My next post will either be from O'Hare or Millbrae, depending on the puncutality of American Airlines. I got upgraded for this afternoon's flight, though, which almost never happens on this route.
