looking for cooler temps in SF
August 30, 2008After a few days baking in the high 90s, we headed for what promised to be a least 10 degrees less with fog coming in.
We had forgotten that most establishments in SF are ill-prepared for hot weather, and stale air from the previous days lingered, especially in stores with skylights. Back in the oven of a car, cold sodas in hand, we decided to see if it was easier to park near Paxton Gate on a weekday.
It certainly was, but a sudden braking meant I dumped half the contents of my Diet Pepsi in my lap. It felt great, but I looked like I had massive bladder failure. Luckily, I had brought a change of clothes.
Can you change pants in a car in the Mission?
Many thanks to the staffperson who led me into the nether regions of Paxton Gate where I was able to put on dry clothes.
