So, I was there like every other month for a week or so and we'd hang out. She is a little "out there" (a psychologist now - go figure  ) -- and she'd haul me out to all these crazy places like this chruch called GLIDE (she marched on Washington with them) . I used to love North Beach Pizza, drinks at The Clift Hotel, Zuni (best roast chicken on the planet! ) , the Haight, Tiburon (delightful!!) - and the like. We used to go on her Scooter to all these places. Let me say, crossing the Golden Gate bridge while riding on the back of a speeding scooter while holding on to some crazy chick is an event
Brig. got all serious with school and got married to another chick and had a baby. So, our lives are different. I miss those times though. In fact, I read "Interview with a Vampire" while living in New Orleans and visiting SFCA. Such great memories!
I LOVE SFCA.

Wow, very impressive. I think visitors sometimes to get know the City better than its locals! I wonder if Stevie ever rode on the back of a scooter  Thanks for sharing.
