Arrived in Aspen on Saturday after a 6am flight from Oakland to Denver and several hours’ drive in the snow. I’m here as a guest of 500-odd Green Corps and PIRG people.
San Francisco – Dec 2007
Day One
Arrived in San Francisco on Monday night after a particularly crappy flight. Spent the evening in quite a daze but woke up next morning feeling fantastic. Looking outside was great news, clear and sunny. After a quick breakfast Amanda went off to her meetings and I went on a walk.
Up 21st street to the top of the first hill offered some great views across the city and then down to Dolores Park for more views of the downtown skyline
and then down to Market Street and some of the city’s squares
Glastonbury 2007
Amanda and I just got back from Glastonbury 2007 where I installed Greenpeace’s solar electric panels, as I did back in 2005. This year their PV array was a bit smaller and easer to access so I had time install about 8 square meters of Viessman flat plate water heating panels and 30 Viessman evacuated tubes for Greenpeace’s solar/wood powered showers.
