It's an interesting world at Fisherman's Wharf...past and present....fishing boats that bring in the day's catch to feed the hungry tourists, the sound of barking seals in the distance, the beautiful vistas of the Golden Gate, often shrouded in fog, with mega vessels housing whole cities gliding underneath as the Alaska cruise season gets underway again. I love it all!

There are images that speaks for themselves and need no words, just like the three you posted here. They speak of a lot of character, the pier, the wharf, the boats, the water, fog, blue sky, life is great.

Hi Joanne,
Bessye here. I loved San Francisco when I lived there in the early 80's. Especially the wharf, the excitement it created with everything and everyone. No place like it!

If only there was a port here in my country as beautiful as this one. hmmm... I think maybe at Subic Bay. But I haven't been there a while. Sorry for the monologue.

I love the pictures. It's like a crowd of boats lined up patiently waiting for their owners to arrive to take them out for a leisurely ride on the coast.

I just noticed my widget here! That is better than any blog award I received. Thank you Joanne!

I love pictures of boats like this. It brings back thoughts of watching Gilligan's Island when I was a kid. It was one of my favorite shows when I was little.

Carmen, I love it all too. That's why I'm there all the time. I may as well just move in that area.

Thanks Barb.

betchai, exactly and thank you.

Icy, thank you.

Bessye, I totally agree. In what neighborhood did you live?

Z, It does look like that. They are all "boats in waiting" And, you are welcome.

Ratty, I love Gilligan as well.

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

-
Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie. For more cute critters, click the above widget.
