Sean’s House

Rebecca’s mom is visiting us for a few weeks (David withdrawal was getting to her, I guess) so we’ve been showing her around the area. She’s not up for walking a lot, so mostly we do driving tours. Today we drove up to San Francisco. We crossed the Golden Gate bridge, but there were so many people there it wasn’t worth trying to find a place to park to look around. On the way back we drove up Geary and I saw the remains of the Coronet theater, where I saw Mars Attacks! on opening night. I don’t know when it closed, but it’s a shame. That theater was huge (single screen) and well taken care of when I was there. We made a small attempt at driving up Lombard to go down the windy hill, but there was just too much traffic. (to be expected) After a slow jaunt through the Wharf area (mmmm.. Ghirardelli) we took Mission to 4th and got the hell out of dodge. Dinner was at the Palo Alto Creamery in the Stanford shopping center. I highly recommend their milkshakes.
