This is the city I love.. we have beaches here but not like SoCal ...



Found this lovely video...its nice and relaxing.. I love the ocean, and the beach. Our San Francisco beaches are not as nice as the ones in Southern California...My family at one time had a house in Santa Barbara.. when I was 13 my dad bought me a wet suit and a surfboard. I never did really became proficient at it...but it was fun to be out there with the big guys and gals hanging ten. I was still at that time taking Kendo classes at our local Dojo. I guess my Japanese side was having conflict with my Hawaiian side.. cause I wanted to learn Kendo and Judo more than spending time at the beach...but there were some great days out there.

I miss that a lot .. just, deciding last second...to say the hell with today, lets go to the beach. I understand that feeling.. but I also look around and see 162 thousand deaths in this country, and knowing my delicate condition would never chance going to the beach with people who won't or refuse to wear a mask or social distance.. As I have stated many times before..getting Covid 19 would be a death sentence for me. I won't chance going out..

I am starting to feel Agoraphobic. I could actually see a future where masks may become a part of our daily life... but we have no choice...there is a killer in this country.. and its running rampant.

I work in northeast Nevada, and I miss my San Francisco. It’s hot here, upper 90’s. Sometimes there are afternoon thunderstorms, but it’s mostly hot and clear. In late August I will go back home to the Mission for a week. I can’t wait to feel the fog and the cool breeze. Thanks for the vid of SF. It makes me yearn for home.
