“It seemed like a matter of minutes when we began rolling in the
foothills before Oakland and suddenly reached a height and saw stretched
out ahead of us the fabulous white city of San Francisco on her eleven
mystic hills with the blue Pacific and its advancing wall of
potato-patch fog beyond, and smoke and goldenness in the late afternoon
of time.”
~Jack Kerouac,
San Francisco in autumn! Oh my, I spent a lot of time there in autumn, because October is our official vacation month, and there is a lot to do in San Francisco. Airplane flights over the city, Coit Tower, with it's gorgeous views from the observation deck, the SkyStar Ferris wheel at Fisherman's Wharf, there's too much fun to be had. So, why is Trump eyeing San Francisco? Assholeisness, and selfish fuckery political opportunism! There is no reason to bring his storm troopers here. Crime has fallen, and he knows it! And anyway, if it's so bad here, why did he back off, after the Tech giants called and asked him to? It's a bunch of shit. Pardon my expletive! But I mean it. Trump has managed to reach out and ruin several plans I had to make this vacation amazing. I couldn't have lunch at the Golden Gate Bridge... closed due to the Epstein shutdown. The Battery Overlooks... closed to the Epstein shutdown. I can't even visit some places, like the river walk at the Cosumnes River Preserve, here in the San Joaquin Valley. I don't go to San Francisco often, so having my favorite places lost to the shit, hurts deeply. One good thing though, at least for now, Trump has called the invasion of the Bay Area off. No storm troupers, but who knows when he'll get another bug up his ass.
I want to show you the beauty I manage to find. Hope you like the photos!
Here's what I saw on my visit, just a few days ago...
