    It was pretty warm when I got up this morning.  Very unusual for San Francisco.  I decided to do some hill climbing and rode Corbett to Portola to Woodside to Dewey to Taravel to 14th Ave up into Golden Gate Heights.  I saw this bus with the groovy new Southwest Airlines ad at 14th Ave and Quintara:

    The view was spectacular from Golden Gate Heights.  The Fog was compressed again like yesterday, yet somehow more picturesque.  Check out this view of the Golden Gate Bridge:

    Looking NW to the Marin Headlands:

    Me looking delighted:

    I headed down into the park at 19th Ave and then rode around Stow Lake which always looks very pretty in the morning:

    Then I headed over into the Richmond on 12th Ave and then took Lake to Arguello into the Presidio and out the Lombard Gate then up to Union and over Russian Hill to Columbus and into work.  A lot of climbing and totally fun.
