100/365: “ I don’t know of any other city where you can walk through so many culturally diverse neighbourhoods, and you’re never out of sight of the wild hills. Nature is very close here." ~ Gary Snyder
I'm in San Francisco for the week, visiting my dad, and this is Day 5! I am so sorry that I don't have time to leave comments while I'm gone, but I really appreciate every one of your visits and comments! They mean the world to me. *hugs* Miss you guys!!!
About 30 minute's walk from my dad's house is a favorite tourist destination called Twin Peaks. It was an absolutely GORGEOUS day today, warm and sunny, so I made that my photo walk for the day! At the top of each of the two peaks, you can see a huge portion of San Francisco, including the Bay Bridge, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Transamerica Pyramid, Market Street all the way down to the Ferry Building at Embarcadero, and of course the 977-ft Sutro Tower which is on a nearby hill and is the Bay Area's most visible icon! You can also see Mt. Davidson from a distance (our "backyard")! To go along with the incredible view, Twin Peaks is parkland and there are flowers everywhere! What a stunning show it was, and I feel so lucky because a sunny day like this is very uncommon in San Francisco! HOORAY!!! :) I'm also very happy that Day 100 of my 365 Project celebrates my home town!!! YAYYYY!!!
Gary Snyder (born May 8, 1930) is an American poet (often associated with the Beat Generation and the San Francisco Renaissance), as well as an essayist, lecturer, and environmental activist (frequently described as the "poet laureate of Deep Ecology"). Snyder is a winner of a Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. His work, in his various roles, reflects an immersion in both Buddhist spirituality and nature. Snyder has translated literature into English from ancient Chinese and modern Japanese. For many years, Snyder served as a faculty member at the University of California, Davis, and he also served for a time on the California Arts Council. Wikipedia: Gary Snyder
