Treasure Island, San Francisco.
Richmond, CA.
Recently completed bike path that eliminated the climb up the hill next to Golden Gate Fields horse racing track.

U.S. Coast Guard Station Yerba Buena Island.
Treasure Island. It's recently been made accesible for bicycles. The caveat is that there is a 16% grade to get back up to the Bay Bridge. Not a problem on my e bike!
Our lunch spot, Mersea (Island Oasis in Old English), on a tip of Treasure Island.
View from Mersea. The food was quite good & they even had a three piece combo providing nice background music.
Doggie Diner heads being restored in front of San Francisco Fire Department 48, Treasure Island.
While they were displayed on the JFK Promenade in Golden Gate Park, in June 2023, some idiot set the heads ablaze.
“‘It was pretty dramatic,’ said notorious San Francisco artist John Law, who has been carting the trio of dog heads he’s named Manny, Moe and Jack around the Bay Area for decades.”
This Berkeley BART station has been here a while. I finally decided to go down & take a look.
Then, I walked around Shattuck Avenue while waiting for Naomi to finsh her appointment with her writing coach.

“In 1925, architect William Yelland designed the Tupper & Reed building for the music store of John C. Tupper and Lawrence Reed. For the next 80 years, Tupper & Reed operated their store…
...which at times served as a restaurant, concert venue, and artistic community space - in the unique, gothic, storybook setting of their urban cathedral."

Where it all started on Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto. Some folks now object to that name.
Time to go to San Francisco’s Chase Center to see the Golden Gate Warriors play the Minnesota Wolverines.
Despite APEC, it wasn't too hard to get to the Chase Center. The hardest part was getting into the parking garage.

In the Chase Center seen from Section 101, Golden State Warriors vs. Minnesota Wolverines.
We were low enough to see the plays but high enough not to hear the sneakers squeaking on the wooden floor.
We arrived in time to watch the warm-ups.
This newborn infant (cradled by dad) arrived in time too.
Then out came The Warriors Dance Team.
By three minutes into the game a major brawl. Wow, did the crowd get into it.

About ten minutes of...
…waiting.
“Draymond Green was ejected after putting Rudy Gobert in a headlock & two other players were thrown out…”
Stef Curry (on the left of the team) was listed as inactive for the game. He was wearing, what looked like, pajamas that probably cost more than our car.
