San Francisco

In general, I do not like big cities but I can make an exception for San Francisco. Most of the cliches I have heard about the city are true. I can understand why people lose their heart here (I think my nephew Steve has). It does get cold here too. It may be hot during the day but when the sun goes down, the fog rolls in, and a wind comes roaring over the bay, you will appreciate your jacket.

This photo was taken from an uncle's house across the bay in Oakland. Magnificent view.
