I've realized that as the Walker cousins reach new stages in life, there is a bigger need for more frequent communication. What I have decided to do, is try to offer a solution. I've come up with a way for us to have an online bulletin board. This will be a good way for you to either share family information, or to learn something about the concerns of the family. Previously, our family updates have been made by phone and email, but occasionally someone accidentally gets left out of the loop.
I'll be in San Francisco all next week for Oracle OpenWorld. Any recommendations from the "locals" on a restaurant or other site I just shouldn't miss if I have a few minutes?
Craig, I been there a few and enjoy Pier 39 for some entertainment. Close by is Alcatraz Cruises and Fisherman's Wharf. Cable cars are something different that we don't have here in Indiana. The last time out Deb and I walked the Golden Gate, that was awesome. Dale
Craig, my favorite is Fisherman's Grotto #9 on the wharf. It is tucked into the corner on the wharf. I've been going there since at least the 1950s. Prices are a bit higher now, like 10 times higher. We used to be able to buy steamed crabs on the wharf for 50 cents and a walkaway shrimp cocktail for 25 cents. I think those went up a bit too. They were way too expensive for us back then. Our travels back then were like you can look but you cannot touch.
Also, I enjoyed the tour of Alcatraz which also included a bit of a bay tour. You can take BART downtown from the airport. Cable cars can be crowded.
You have a cousin in the bay area and in Sacramento. Carol will be home from SLC Wednesday night. Have a great trip! Don't freeze. San Francisco has typical temps. of 55 even in the summer.
