In Tom's Neighborhood: Sutro Mist

Sutro Mist

Last Sunday I went to Golden Gate Park to watch a couple of old-time base ball teams dressed in 1880s-era uniforms play a game using 1880s-era rules (seven balls for a walk, fouls are not counted as strikes, a hit batsman does not get a base, etc.). It was a blast... and while I was there, I got this shot of Sutro Tower being gently enveloped in some of the famous high-flying San Francisco fog.

Is that the salt fog or just the regular fog? ;)

Tom Hilton said...

Nice. And Ahab, lots less salt content this far inland...

Generik said...

Yeah, most of the salt gets deposited in the outer Sunset district before the fog reaches in this far.

What a hoot watching that oldtimey baseball. The real thing starts in less than two weeks.

Go Twins!

I know! It was really fun.

Also, I just got my Giants season tickets yesterday. Woohoo!!

(So sorry about Joe Nathan having to get his Tommy John operated on, E-6.)
