at 10 PMish on Saturday night...

... I get a call from Thereminman announcing to me that he is coming over in the morning and dragging me out of my cave for a day trip to San Francisco. I agreed only if I could make certain arrangements at the homestead. I have to admit what appealed to me most about this was that it reminded me of my college years... the whole adventure of pick-up-and-go. 4 guys on a road trip with no real purpose except... to go.

We got into the city, drove down Lombard Street and found parking in North Beach... not far away from Coit Tower. We checked out shops, made our way to the City Lights Bookshop then for lunch in Chinatown. After that we headed to the Height/Ashbury area to do more window shopping. Then drove through the fog and got home just before midnight.

A fine day was had with a great bunch of blokes who just wanted to get out and stretch for a bit. Wonderful company, great conversation and a brief but sweet distraction that I think did all of us a world of good.
