spring riot

Bay seniors who swear the only way they will set foot on Pier 39 again will be by being dragged kicking and screaming might want to start howling now. From February 16 to 24 this tourist scamerama will become a vast tulip garden, over 39,000 flowers in fact blooming in more colors than Martha Stewart […]

lions’ den

Bay seniors who can’t answer when their grandkids ask them why all those sea lions are lounging around Pier 39 are invited to a walking tour there that promises to explain everything. The tours last 20 minutes and are being held from January 18-21 at 11am, noon, 1pm and 2pm. Free.

rah rah

Bay seniors may be forgiven for crowing about the blessed concurrence of our championships in both baseball and football. The only sour note is next year’s incarnation to the Santa Clara 49ers. A framed picture of Candlestick is a lump in the throat souvenir you can find in the 49er shop along with dozens of […]

seems like old times

Bay seniors can get a sense of San Francisco before it became San Francisco on a short walk through the recently restored dunes on Lobos Creek in the Presidio.

Built in 1925 it’s an art deco gem now housing the Spice Monkey Restaurant. Sponsored by the estimable Oakland Heritage Alliance, […]

free ride

That includes cable cars which are normally $5. By the way were you aware that seniors get discounts on cable car rides all year long –as […]

light shows

Bay seniors dazzled by the holiday lights will have an even more  impressive display on view tonight and Friday when Geminids Meteor Shower flashes over the southern part of the Bay. If it’s clear you’ll be able to see 50 or more meteors per hour. They’ll be hurtling at  93,600 mph when they enter the […]

a holiday from the holidays

Bay seniors feeling bullied by excessive holiday cheer will enjoy the deliciously bitter tang of the new Tom Waits musical at Berkeley’s Ashby Playhouse. The Geezer doesn’t normally play critic but for “Woyzeck” I have to admit I leapt to my feet like I had been hit by electricity. It’s across the street from Ashby […]
