I walked the streets of San Francisco this afternoon/evening. There were but a few tourist so the Wharf was relaxed and rather quiet. Met a homeless girl named Yolanda..we visited about why she finds herself in life spending nights on a park bench and what are her options and how it feels to sleep nights in a Shelter. You will see another homeless person in my photos, however I made no attempt to visit with him.I was a true tourist and bought a sweat shirt with San Francisco slashed on the front. Spent TOO long on a bus trying :oto return to the parking garage. I boarded the bus going the opposite direction,so opted to ride the bus for the entire route. I must say it is one way to see the city.
Enjoyed a sumptuous bowl of clam chowder served in a San Francisco sour dough bread bowl. Does this wet your appetite? Them you need be with me for the stop at a fresh fruit stand on HWY 101.
"I BRAKE FOR BING CHERRIES!" The cherries and strawberries are fresh from the fields. Some other time I will share a story of my GI patients and Bing Cherries.
I did not go near the Golden Gate as had not a cable for low light photos and also needed to stay in the same quadrant as were I parked my car
One can hike a mountain on San Francisco's steep hills and i feel like this describes me. I am tired and need to get to bed.Tomorrow is my first ride (and maybe my ONLY ride) on a highway on a Harley. A nurse Vietnam Veteran asked me to accompany him to the Veteran meeting in Santa Cruz..about and hour drive from my place. After I accepted I learned he drives/rides a Harley to these meetings. I told him (reluctantly) after the spill on my bro-in-laws bike last week, that I would try this one time. If it is not fun or is scary why do it?
Will have to let you know how the ride goes
Good night
