NATURAL V. BUILT
I’ve never given myself any excuse to leave the city for
a small trip such as one to Muir Woods, a place
travelers from all around the world come to visit.
I was glad when we were assigned to visit some place
new because not only was I meeting that rule of the
assignment by visiting somewhere I’ve never been
before, I finally excused myself to cross that Cherry
Red (Golden Gate) Bridge and visit John Muir’s famous
red woods .

Who needs dirt when you
have dead leaves?
Tannin (poisonous to human beings) is what makes the trees so red.

WHAT A
STRANGE
FORMATION
It’s a good thing I don’t live down town! Otherwise, I think I’d be
taking neighborhoods like China Basin and Dogpatch for
granted.
It was a real treat to see San Francisco like I’ve never seen it
before. I ’ve seen only seen the buildings of China Basin from
afar. They’re always a beauty from miles away but they look
even better up close.
Let’s just say I know where I’d like to take my dog out to for our
next weekend outing.
DOG LOVER HAVEN
It looks like short stair cases for giants.
Boat houses? That’s just crazy!
Oh, you know.
Just the coolest garden in San Francisco! MISSION CREEK GARDEN
