SF Bay

stone cold crazy

Who would be insane enough to risk hypothermia in the 53 degree waters of the Bay? You can see a thousand of these nutcases at noon this Saturday during the 2017 Polar Plunge at Aquatic Park in the City. If you are deranged enough to join in the fee is $100. Anyone who changes their mind […]

bombs away

Bay seniors cross their fingers every 4th of July hoping the summer fog lifts long enough to see the fireworks which get more  spectacular every year. The shoreline viewing areas become crowded early. Why not watch the exploding show from the Bay itself? The Red & White Fleet has four 2.5 hour cruises that glorious […]

uber on the water

Bay seniors who puzzle that Seattle, New York and Venice have on-demand water taxis and we don’t, stop your grousing. We have two of them. For Marinites (working or partying late) who miss their ferry, TidelineSF will take you from and to any authorized landing, like from Sausalito to Pier 1 in 14 minutes. The […]

playing dead

Bay seniors have long suspected that Halloween has been stolen from children and expropriated by adults. Every bar in the Bay Area appears to be competing to come up with the most ghostly, ghastly theme. This year the Geezer gives the prize to Commodore Cruises. On Saturday, October 26 at Pier 40 you are invited […]

unburying treasure

Bay seniors would have to be around 80 to remember the art deco splendors of the 1939 Golden Gate International Exhibition on Treasure Island. A group is trying to revive memories of the Fair and the Pan Am seaplanes that took off from there to Asia. This Saturday July 13 the nascent Treasure Island Museum […]

@ sea

Bay seniors who’d like to experience WWII without the bombs and torpedos are invited aboard the SS Jeremiah O’Brien for a four-hour cruise this Saturday. It is one of the last two of the 2,710 Liberty ships and most days can be found docked at Fisherman’s Wharf. Her history is glorious including 11 crossings of the […]

not deja view

Bay seniors who think they’ve seen SF from every possible angle might want to check out the wide-screen panorama from the Craneway Pavilion in Richmond. Formerly a Ford assembly plant built in 1931, this 45,000 square foot all-glass structure is set on 2500 waterfront acres and boasts an eye opening Bay view. A few steps […]

sandwiched inside a sub

Bay seniors who are contemplating downsizing might want to visit the USS Pampanito docked in Pier 45 near Fisherman’s Wharf. It’s a battle proven World War II submarine that saw action throughout the Pacific, sinking at least six enemy ships. It’s hard to believe as you inch through the tiny spaces under the deck that 80 […]
