Ah, lovely, and even lovelier in this spell of warm weather we're having....but not warm enough for me to immerse myself in the water!!!

I was just wondering, Jo, have you actually ever been swimming here? Besides being cold, I know it's not the safest surf to be in because of currents, etc...unless you are one of those wet-suited surfer dudes.

Joanne;

Exquisite work! I walk Ocean Beach as often as I can, especially on "bad" days when the beach is wild, woven, and full of 'wanderlust.'

My best friend owns Java Beach Cafe. I love that area better than any other here in SF.

Blessings,

Mickey Disend

Michelle, let's trade one of these days. I'd love to see Portland.

Icy, thanks I wish you could see it in person as well.

Carmen, I have been swimming there many times back in the day. However now it is very dangerous to swim out there or even wade out there. Warnings are posted all over about it but I do every so often go wading. I can't help myself.

betchai, Those rocks are part of the rocky cliffs. You would love it there.

eng, exactly, thank you.

bessye, that's exactly why I post these so you will come for a visit :)

Mickey, thanks for stopping by. I'm always out there as well. Love Java Beach cafe it's such a cool place. See ya on the surf :)

Mark, yes, it is very therapeutic and inspirational.

rainfield, it is gorgeous isn't it?

Holly, thanks, that is a favorite of mine too with the cliff house in the background.

Save The San Francisco Botanical Gardens

All of these photos were taken by me on Monday during my visit to the Botanical Gardens. I planned on this just being a Wordless Wednesday post with photos until I visited the Gardens website and found that due to budget cuts etc... the gardens will fall to demise unless they begin charging an entrance fee. There have been mumblings and rumors about this over the past year with a lively debate. Now you all know that I am there on a regular basis. If it has to permanently close I WILL NOT be a happy camper. The gardens have always been free unlike all the other venues in that area to include the DeYoung Museum, The Academy of Sciences of which you almost have to be a millionaire to afford their entrance fees, The Japanese Tea Garden and the Conservatory of Flowers. My position is that the Botanical Gardens should begin implementing fees. Why not? Everyone else charges fees to maintain their venues. If you buy a membership to the gardens which is as low as $60.00 per year, round...
