    I headed off after work Columbus to Powell to North Point to Van Ness to Francsico to Gough to Chestnut to Lyon and into the Presidio.  I came around on Lincoln and stopped at the National Military Cemetery which is in the process of getting gussied up for Memorial Day.  It's enormous.  You don't realize how large it is from Lincoln but it seems to go on forever.  Kind of like war:

    I continued on Lincoln to Ralston to Washington and stopped at Immigrant Point to get a picture of the Marin Headlands in the fading light:

    Me at immigrant point:

    I took Washington to Wedermeyer and out the 15th Ave gate.  Then I took Lake to 23rd to Balboa to the ocean and then down the Great Highway.  The beach looked gorgeous.  Note:  those are kite surfers not birds.  It's the coolest looking sport but one that I doubt I'd ever be coordinated enough to attempt:

    I took the Great Highway to JFK and into Golden Gate Park.  I followed JFK to the Panhandle and then Stanyon to Page to Scott to Duboce to Castro to 17th and then home.  Mr. Poe had his Spanish final so I met Mr. David and Sofi, the world's sweetest dog, at the Park.  Rufus loves Sofi so much.  She's his favoritest.
