I left my heart... in San Francisco

[nevets88]

One of the most beautiful cities. I wouldn't put a ball in the bay though.

Looked like a wicked push too.

He might want to round those shoulders... great city to visit for a week.

I plan a trip there in a few years.  I went to Pebble right before the US Open in 1982.  The wife wants to go there (not to Pebble).

12th tee at Arcadia Bluffs, I put one into Lake Michigan every time I play there - and I'm always amazed how long it takes to make a splash (about 150' up on a bluff)

The nuts, fruits, flakes, politics, homeless, etc... notwithstanding, it's one of THE great cities of the world and well worth an extended visit.  Don't miss the chance to add in a couple of days up to wine country either.

I've played a lot of tournament golf at Lincoln Park, especially this time of the year. The city does a terrible job maintaining it but there are a lot of great holes.

Heading there in mid May for a conference for 4 days. Unfortunately no time to play golf but at least we will be downtown this year and not out by airport so should be a lot of fun in the evenings. 

I've been around San Jose, Monteray, Salinas and the like for business but never made it to other side of bridge till last year.  Went to Napa years ago for a few days and did a few tours and lunch on the wine train. Looking forward to going again and hope it's not too chilly.

Next time try Healdsburg and the Russian River Valley - a bit north and west of Napa for a more laidback atmosphere and less tourists, even though wine hounds abound. Pinot Noir, Zins, Syrah, Gevurtz, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, (try Hartford Court, Arista and many others) Sparkling Wines (Iron Horse).

Yup, lots of strange characters, but an amazing place. I'm been lucky enough to live about 45 minutes away from the city for the past 30 years. We don't get into the city as often as we used to, but we'll take the ferry over 2 or 3 times a year for dinner or a show (or both), and it's always a memorable time.
