One A Day - On This Day in 2008
San Francisco CA The Embarcadero
On this day in 2008 it was Sunday Streets! For a few Sundays during the summer they shut down a major street and people can walk, bike, skate or do whatever along the street that is closed. On this Sunday it happened to be The Embarcadero. Various businesses set up free booths to do things as well as advertised. The group had a big pile of jump ropes and you can see a giant parachute in the background. Remember playing with a parachute and a ball when you were a kid? Well I did that on this day in 2008.

A quickie with more to come....
So things have been busy and I have a ton of pictures to edit and post. Here are some that I gathered just before events went wild. I thought I would post these and then follow up with bigger posts that include more visiting friends, more events and festivals and a trip to Nebraska (yes Nebraska). I have 1200 pictures to go through from the Nebraska trip alone so there will be quite a bit of pictures to see soon. Enjoy this quickie and look forward to a few full posts coming soon.
Sunday Streets is an event put on by The City. They close major streets to traffic and open them up to biking, walking, rollerblading and any other form of fun transportation you can think of. Vendors come out of the woodwork to sell you all kind of fun things. They started this last summer and I am sure will continue it in the following years. I only took one picture at this event last summer and it can be found in this post.
Dana (one of Donna's college friends) came to visit us and we had a great time. Here we are at the Ferry Building enjoying Boccalone Salame.
A fun shot of one of the tall buildings in The Financial District.
That's all for now but check back soon. Thanks for stopping by.
