Just Another Typical S.F. Weekend

Despite it's small population and tiny geographic size, San Francisco is often considered America's 'Other Great City'. This is so a part of this nation's conventional wisdom, that whenever we meet someone who is moving out of S.F., three of four times, they are moving to New York. Likewise, many of those moving from N.Y.C. are moving to S.F. There is a constant flow of migrants from one city to the other.
So, it is no wonder that little ol' S.F. offers so much to experience in terms of art, music, culture, parades, and more. A couple weekends ago, we took advantage of a typical weekend in The City. Like most weekends, there were so many different things going on that we had to prioritize, cutting out visits to events that, anywhere else, would be unmissable.
In the end, we took in some music at the annual (and free!) Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in Golden Gate Park which has grown to almost ten stages and 3 full days then walked up to Castro where they were having their Street Fair. We had to cut out the International Veg Festival, the annual sand castle building competition at Ocean Beach, a free day at the Asian Art Museum, and a few other great happenings.
The concert was great, the Castro Street Fair wilder than expected, and you, Rai, enjoyed every moment of this day out. Every day you show us more and more of your gregarious personality. Crowds? No problem. You love checking out all the different people as much as they like seeing you!
