Nope - not planned as far as I know.
I have an open invitation to BNA members that I will give a free San Francisco tour in exchange for lunch.
HTV actually took me up on it.
SHe called me on my cell so I stopped by her hostel (during my work day) just for a bit, then returned after my shift and took her to see the Golden Gate Bridge, Ft. Point, The Cliff House, Ft. Baker, The Presidio, etc. We finished the nickel with the best burger in town at Original Joe’s on Taylor.
I had the Original Joe’s Mishmash special a few years ago - ugh - I shoulda had the burger…looked way better than the onions and ground beef. Let’s go back for the burger next time.
Sean, nice talkin’ to ya. and you should definitely get the burger! It was outstanding… and it was so huge that I couldnt even finish it, which is amazing in its own right.
I also highly recommend the Joe E tour. Not only do you get to see a bunch of cool places, but w/ the coolest cabbie in SF. Joe, greeting meeting you… and thanks for the tour!
Burgers - I love ‘em…2 recommendations is all I need. Glad you enjoyed it Helga and hope to do the same one day soon meself!

Those of you who read the BootBlog may remember my recent musings on how online friends become real-life friends. What some of you who read that article may not know is that I heard from several BootsnAll members after it was published who said, "Yeah, that's interesting and all, but we've been doing that for years now." And it's … [Read more]

Awhile back I posted here about getting into the Boston Globe Travel Show for free. Turns out that was for the trade conference during the day on Friday Feb 19th, not the travel show for regular consumers like you and me that runs from the evening of Friday, February 19 to …
