Everyday, or almost every day, Walk my four miles along the Alameda Creek Levee,
It might get a little boring or a lot boring except I take my camera…

One day in San Francisco poster; one walk I used to make was BART to Civic Center, up Haight street to Golden Gate Park, have a chicken wrap with barbecue sauce at the MacDonalds, walk across to Japan Town area, up Fillmore somewhere, turn right and go back downtown, cross Van Ness, up the hill and down, over to Washington Square (there is free bathroom there) , through North Beach and the edge of Chinatown, past the bookstore and
the big building, catch BART at Montgomery Station and on back to Fremont. You can’t do that anymore Steve, they closed the MacDonalds.
