Okay, that's really cool. I'm going to have to check that out next time I visit my Dad.

We saw that. I second checking it out.

We also wandered around Little Italy and found a great cafe as well as a delicious hole in the wall Italian place. Couldn't tell you where they were or what they were called to save my life though.

Nice, GD. I'll definitely check that out.

I'll be going solo. Outside Lands is in Golden Gate Park, I definitely plan on checking out the tea garden. Great suggestions guys, thanks.

We have some fine museums and some fine exhibits going on in August, including the not to be missed Tut exhibit at the DeYoung. The Academy of Sciences is awesome. When in August are you planning on being here?

The very end. We should have a lot meet!

Okay, cool! I should be around. I'll be gone around August 23-24th, otherwise I am in town all month.

Hey guys... any idea what admission is for this? The website doesn't say, but I'm thinking of going there next week.

It's free to enter, though the machines mostly cost a quarter to operate.

Even better!
