The day after Christmas it started raining in San Francisco. Raining like crazy. You know what that means, though... it's snowing in Tahoe!

Don't forget last week, before the rains came...

Don't do this, don't do that, don't do the other

The Bay bridge. So many rules

The day before Christmas Eve. San Francisco weather could not be more perfect.

The construction workers next door accidentally drilled right through into our building. Just where my car was parked.

Hopefully no damage done. I need to check the car, tomorrow, in daylight.

Leaving San Francisco for Christmas?

Bay Bridge. The rules.

It so beautiful right now in San Francisco. It's so hot and sunny I can hardly believe Christmas is only a week away. I'd like it to stay like this in town and hope it snows a lot in Tahoe before we head up there for New Year.

Watch the road!

If you See this lighter in SF? it's pretty unusual and it was taken from a party we threw. Fred would love to get it back. If you see anyone with one like this in SF, ask them if they found it at Sam and Fred's. if they say yes, please ask them, nicely, to return it to its rightful owner.

Lemony Snicket

Last week I had the unfortunate honour of seeing a preview of the Lemony Snicket Movie One thing I will say is - if you see this film, don't forget to sit through the credits. No, not just to see my name , Sam Breach, go by, but because they are just about some of the prettiest most charming and cute film credits I have ever seen.

Am I too old to have parties which are still raging at 6am?

I Heart You

Last week in SF, we had some unusual Euro-style fog, which is quite different to the regular, infamous SF fog

San Francisco sunrise. You know what time it is...
