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! : )

Oh man! I just HATE missing out on these things. At least we do have this forum where we can share photos and comments. It's almost like being there.......but, not quite. LOL!

(BTW, love your patriotic top.)

Oops! I just read your post #147 about the concert and now I have to retract my earlier comment about being sorry I missed it. I was referring to the music, which sounded nice, but I'm glad I missed more of Brown's stupid, inappropriate comments. I guess you got a taste of SF on 9/11 and after the KSFO event, it must have been a rude awakening! On the other hand, at least we had the Union Square event.
