Travel: San Francisco Bay

Been a while since I posted anything here. Someday I'll even comment on the final two episodes of the Amazing Race which I still have to watch. Hopefully, I will get that done and post my comments before the next season starts.

In the meantime, I have been keeping my nose to the grindstone at work. I have not been on a plane in months, but if I had to be stuck anywhere, the San Francisco Bay Area is the place to be. I recently had the privilege of going on a bay cruise on a "Blue and Gold" ferry (Go Bears). It allowed me to see the sights from a different perspective. It was a nice tour of both the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges, Alcatraz, Angel Island, and McCovey Cove behind AT&T Park.

This photo is of the Golden Gate Bridge about an hour or so before sunset. With all the wildfires going on in California it made for a surreal scene. I thought the Bridge might blend into the background, but it turned out okay.
