Food in San Francisco
More later, this is mostly a reminder to myself
Oysters at the Ferry Buildin
Fresca
Garabaldils
(Bar Crudo)
La Mar Cebicheria
So sad to be me
Because of circumstances BEYOND MY CONTROL Doreen and my reservations were split.
As I am a Platinum and my Sweet Ever Lovin' is Silver, I got upgraded and she did not.
I repeatedly offered her my seat, but she refused.
Now, I fear, I will pay the price.

Hardly Strickly Bluegrass
We went to the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival yesterday.
It was unbelievably crowded:
I am not sure how short people were able to get around. I was able to see above everyone, and yet it was almost impossible to get anywhere.
We watched a little bit of Steve Martin on the Banjo Stage. But we worked our way over to the Rooster Stage and saw Dar Williams, Allison Moorer, Steve Earl, and Tom Morello.
The first three were great. Tom Morello (the Night Watchman) was a little over the top. But it was fun anyway.
The buses were so crowded getting back that we had to walk about a half mile out of the park to find one that we could get on. There were so many bicyclists that they had to hang their bikes in the trees! Like a Strange Fruit. (sorry. bad analogy)
It was a beautiful day in San Francisco.

Off to San Francisco
We are off sfor a short trip to San Francisco tomorrow. I will try and post from there, with photos and everything.
Some work, some fun, some just enjoying the City by the Bay.
San Francisco was the first real city I ever visited on my own.
One of Doreen's dearest friends lives there. He is a priest.
Maybe he will forgive me of my sins.
