Ten days with our son have gone far to quickly.  We took him out last evening to a fine restaurant, Gary Danko, near the Aquatic Park and Fishermen’s Row.  There was still light when we finished and Laurie’s flight had been delayed in Denver, so we walked along the shore and then up the very, very steep Hyde Street for a few blocks.  The colorful tourist cable cars were running half full.  If we were not expecting a text announcing Laurie’s arrival, we would have taken a ride.  Instead we enjoyed watching the transits and the tourists aboard.

I post to mention that I’ll post here on our travels beginning next month.  If you read this pass on the word.

 Our rig is perched at the campground here on the Blue Ridge Parkway in western North Carolina. 

 Greetings.  I have not written here this year and wonder who is paying attention to the posts.<
