FOG of a World Class nature

DAMN!!! There it is again, lazily hanging and ever so slowly creeping into the contours of the City, almost tar like in it's consistency. The past several days, while the entire Bay Area "suffers" from a heat wave, us hearty residents of the Sunset District have been dealing with some truly World Class FOG.

This is not the wind whipped FOG that we typically get pushing through to the East Bay, this FOG bank has just hung over the City's low points and through the Gate. Talk about a change in climate - 60s, wet and dewy when I start my commute to the East Bay, arriving to clear sunny blue skies already tipping into the 70s. Fantastic example of the Bay Area's micro climates.

Carol Schulz, Queen of the Beach, recently stated, "Jeez Dickson, I'm usually a pretty positive person, but this Summer has been pretty bad with the FOG.". This is someone who has lived in the Sunset her whole life and knows it like the back of her hand! You know it is bad if Carol complains about it. Typically by this point in the year we have shaken off our FOGGY weather.

All I can do now is pray for a cold front to sweep through the Bay Area, dust the Sierras with a layer of the Winter Season's first snows and then it will be on... yes our (San Francisco's) Summer will then arrive being blown in via the East! Bye, bye FOG don't let the Gate hit you in the ass on your way out!!!

SUNSET PRIDE: UFO Response Team

I live with my family in the Sunset District of San Francisco on the far western edge of the United States. I love this neighborhood and have lived here off and on 8 years - I think. Hard to pin-point exactly what I love about this neighborhood, so many different facets. The people, the fog (world class), Golden Gate Park, the ocean... So I'll try and write about my hood whenever inspired.

What not a better way to start off this series than with the UFO Response Team. Yeah, they are headquartered right down the street from our apartment. I know this because their response vehicle is always parked a few blocks down the street. Can't tell you how nice it is to have them close by. After all there are a lot of unexplainable activities going on inside Golden Gate Park and around the hood these days.

Are you a believer? Have you run into the UFO Response Team? Do you know what to do if you run into a UFO? If not go here and find out more about UFOs.
