We started with brunch on Haight St (All You Knead - a pleasant cafe), wandered into Golden Gate Park, stopping for pictures and conversation at Ashbury St, the Garfield Statue, the Dahlia Garden, the Floral Plaque, the Conservatory and the Tree Fern Dell before adjourning to Ebisu for very fine dinner.

And a great time was had by all! I'll post some pics of the group soon. In the meantime, enjoy another pic from Golden Gate Park.

What another fine Dahlia shot there, Rick, --- and so wonderful to meet you yesterday!! You and Trolleypup are keeping us all waiting & soon begging to see our hair pics from yesterday!
This pic of the Haight St. legs was as you know not taken by me yesterday, since I had no camera with me (boo-hoo-hoo). I took it at the Haight St. Fair from 2 years ago; but felt appropo since we saw these same legs after our lunch (gee, I don't think she's even changed her stockings for YEARS)...
Last night I was worried whether or not you forgot your camera in my truck; but I see you obviously hadn't! Anyway, please post those hair pics from our wonderful get-together SOON!!!!!!!
Again, it was so great to meet you, as well as the rest of the gang yesterday!

What a fun day!! This pic I uploaded had nothing to do with yesterday; but since I was the only one without a camera, and not wanting to feel "left out" in contributing something floral, I hope I'll be forgiven for showing off this shot from one of the gardens I have taken care of, just a few blocks away from the Haight - Ashbury neighborhood where we ate our lunch.
It was great meeting you yesterday, Trolleypup, --- and I was blown away by the Ebisu dinner!!!
CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE HAIR PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Likewise! And Ebisu is pretty special. (I didn't get any pictures there either...this is from Tuesday:

Our designated photographer!
Who knew Larry had 13 inches of hair? Funy how 'facts' can be misleading, pictures too.
Elizabeth
Great pictures all! I can't wait for more...
Looks like you had a lot of fun, food, and flowers :)
Yes, someone brought a measuring tape, and measured everyone, LHC style. Only one person had hair longer than the measuring tape!
