This post is part four of Spring Skiing Spring Break. I buy my Mariners ticket and walk back up to King Street Station–(8 Photos) and walk over the overpass to the Sounder island platform that is separate from the regular station. I board the second Tacoma-bound train (this becomes the second reverse peak direction train and […]

This post is part three of Spring Skiing Spring Break. Introduction: Tuesday night before my trip I’m visiting the Sound Transit website and notice an alert that through September (the website says they began on April first, but when I check later the website says starting April 9th) the region is piloting an ORCA Day Pass […]
This post is part two of Spring Skiing Spring Break. I sit and relax for 20 minutes eating the bagel I packed at home and forgot to eat on the subway. I eventually decide to get up and walk the new long pier that replaced the Pan Am Terminal that has been nearly demolished to […]
In Mid-April I went on a long Spring Break trip, I meant to write updates during my trip but getting grad school work got the better of me for writing during the trip. Introduction: Ever since I bought my Independence ski pass that I skied three of my six free areas on back in January […]
I had a chance today to write two more Caltrain Stations as I continue dashing north to San Francisco, the last two in the core of San Mateo County (Bayshore is on the border): South San Francisco–(48 Photos) San Bruno–(46 Photos)
I’ve finally gotten the huge intermodal station Millbrae–(page rebuilt with 74 Photos) in the San Mateo County done.

It would have been much cheeper and more convenient to extended Airtrain […]
Graduate School has gotten the better of me and I can’t believe its been about 3 weeks without an update! This one is simple and obvious, continuing up Caltrain the final few stops before Millbrae: Broadway–(45 Photos) Burlingame–(60 Photos) San Mateo–(40 Photos) Enjoy!
Having a relatively quiet Presidents Day Weekend (a good thing for the website’s stations). Here are the next three stations continuing up Caltrain: Hayward Park–(20 Photos) Hillsdale–(25 Photos) Belmont–(24 Photos) Enjoy!
I’ve had a chance to finish a few more Caltrain Stations, continuing up the line: San Carlos–(34 Photos) Redwood City–(33 Photos) Atherton–(29 Photos) Menlo Park–(46 Photos) Enjoy!
Well, one county of Caltrain stations is fully on (Santa Clara), two more to go (San Manteo and the City and County of San Francisco) and I’m basically half-way through this system! Palo Alto–(59 Photos) Stanford (Stadium)–(18 Photos)-Special Events Only California Ave.–(59 Photos) San Antonio–(34 Photos) Full disclosure: I edited typed up my summaries over […]
