  • Thursday, October 30

    It wasn't nearly as cold this morning as yesterday.  Either that or I'm getting used to it.  I headed of Corbett to Portola to Woodside to Dewey to Taravel and down to the coast.  I went down the Great Highway to Skyline to Lake Merced to Winston to Moncado to Urbano.  This is the glorious sunride from Urbano at Legion:

    I continued on Urbano to Pico to De Montefort to Mirimar to Ocean to Phelan to Judson to Foerster to Monterey to Diamond to Wilder to Arlington to Randall to San Jose to Duncan to Valencia to Market.  Finally there was enough light for pics so I took some pics while I came down Market.  This is the glorious Golden Gate Theatre (on the left):

    Me in the tenderloin:

    This is the old Hibernia Bank.  It's a GORGEOUS building that's completely vacant.  I keep hoping it's going to get developed.  I'd love to see it as the centerpiece of a high rise condo building.  It would be swank:

    The view down 5th Street: 

    I continued on Market to Sansome and into work.
