Hey friends, wondered in to this cute little gallery by my house, across the street from Bayview Plaza, and saw this awesome FREE exhibit of wacky Barbie and Ken dolls. You should check it out.

Olafur Eliasson at SFMOMA

Hey dudes, there is a lot of great art at the SFMOMA right now. Go straight to Take your time by Olafur Eliasson on the fifth floor and work your way down. I wasn't allowed to take photos of the walkway but I found this one online. On the second floor is the talked about frozen BMW. Take the blanket by the door with you. Anyhoo, you should all go if you haven't already. Many exhibits have long lines but they are worth the wait. Try blowing on the water on the fifth floor. I love art.
