Our good neighbor in Shakopee, Joe Daly, lived all his life in the Bay Area, in Santa Rosa, just up the road from the Golden Gate bridge. Joe retired to Minnesota and loves it there, as he struggles with the winters and making his garden grow. He also loves to tell stories about the good old days in the San Francisco area. He remembers how they used to laugh at the tourists who came to walk across the Golden Gate bridge. It gets very cold out in the middle, as we confirmed during our brisk walk yesterday. But that, Joe says, is a fact often unknown or overlooked by greenhorn tourists. "You could always tell a tourist walking on the bridge because they'll be wearing shorts," Joe scoffs to his Shakopee neighbor.
This one's for you, Joe.
This one's for you, Joe.
