Monica and I went down to San Francisco on Monday. I grew up here, so we like to check out the places that get missed by most tourists. This is a shot of a small garden tucked into a alley with skyscrapers rising up all around. Somehow just enough sun squeak's through to keep things alive.

It's located in Fella Alley. If you know where this is you REALLY know "The City".

All in all "The City" seems much the same as it was twenty years ago except that now I have a car with automatic transmission, which makes driving on these insane hills a lot easier now than my '68 VW Bus with the manual transmission did then. I realize how crazy I was to drive that car some of the places I did.
