Sorry Syncro, I crashed last night before you got this thread posted, but this was sure fun to wake up to this morning. Loved the photos and comments. Got me smiling first thing.

I wish I could have been there, I would have loved to have seen that flag! Also would have been grate to see Melanie, bootless and AP again.......and, of course, you too! :-)

You would have loved it Mama_Bear. : ) It was wonderful to be around so many "in tune" people. Like a huuuge gathering of FResno FReepers! : )

Speaking of people needing "tuning" imo, in the evening there was a outdoor concert by the San Francisco Symphony at Yeba Buena Gardens for 9/11. I stopped by. There were possibly several thousand people there sitting on the lawn listening to music (Aaron Copland's "Fanfare to the Common Man," etc.). Mayor Willie Brown spoke something about people should be "tolerant." HUH?! Americans have bent over backwards being "tolerant," imo! There was quite a difference in mood and "oomph" (you know, guts/passion) between the people at the two events, imo.

Thank goodness for KSFO! : )
