The bridge photos were taken from the Fort Point area. Lots of interesting objects around there, and the weather can go through several iterations in no time.

These are most excellent!

Great job on every single one.

The Golden Gate Bridge photos are especially fine.

I don't know if you've been, but the areas around both ends of the bridge have some really nice views, and the weather can change pretty quickly.

...in the not too distant future. In a couple of years all our kids and in-laws will be spread between San Diego and Redlands.

Soon as my wife retires we're outta here, nice as its been here these past 60+ years. I really like the desert, so it will be a good move I think.

The B&W inside the cafe really take you back in time. And the exterior shot--looking in to the two guys--is timeless! It could have been taken right after
the cafe was built!

Moving, huh? To the desert?!? Anza Borrego area?

We're looking in the area between Redlands and Ramona. Something ranch style, new or fairly new. I completely remodeled this place, but I would like not to have to do another one.

15. My brother--who lives in Solana Beach--has done major or complete remodels on his last three houses

in Berwyn, PA; Hillsborough, CA; Solana Beach, CA. All moves due to taking jobs with different companies. He's a total workaholic.
Doesn't know what to do with himself if he isn't working or remodeling. Now in a semi-retired state
living in a 'done' house. Waiting to see which one cracks up first--he or his wife!

I suspect you'd enjoy having a lot of time for photography. Good luck with the house hunting.

love the cafe shots. Clear and crisp, great in b/w, and make me feel like a voyeur, yet invited. I also like the second bird shot a lot. makes me smile.

It was a nice day to be in The City.

I've enjoyed your series on your trip south. Savannah, Charleston, and Wilmington are among our favorite cities along the southern coast.
