Corner Market San Francisco, originally uploaded by Rick Pie.
I had a couple of hours to spend in San Francisco a couple days ago and decided to head out with my camera. Not wanting to take the usual photos, I snapped this shot of a corner market on Geary Street near Union Square.
Ellen never stops to amaze me. I love this video she did with Jennifer Hudson in her bathroom concert series. The duo sing “And I’m Telling You.” This video is comedy perfection.
Michael Phelps appeared on the today show with Matt Lauer to explain and apologize for his pot smoking experience. I am amazed the public is making such a huge reaction over this incident. Yes, he smoked pot, but yes, he also did win 8 gold medals in one Olympic games. Being a young man, Phelps is going to experiment and, like most Americans, get into trouble from time to time. We shouldn’t penalize him for doing something harmless, such as smoking marijuana.

This is a very touching and wonderful story about two unlikely best friends, Tara and Bella. This is a must watch.
Rick Pie, the blog, has been in need of a major facelift for quite awhile. I have just launched a portion of the new and improved look for rickpie.com. More improvements are on the way.
Let me know what you think.

Long crowing roosters, which originated in Japan, are becoming increasingly popular throughout the world. For those of you who know me, you understand that I one day would like goats. Now I am thinking these roosters are a must have. What will the goats, and neighbors, think about these???

This old building was off the side of the road in Morgan, Utah. My sister and I found lots of old cars and buildings to photograph in this little Utah town
Columbia River December 2008, originally uploaded by Rick Pie.
This photo was taken on our way back to Washington from Utah. We stopped along the Columbia River, just before Multnomah Falls, and snapped this shot. The weather along the Colubmia was very dramatic.
