The Wedding

Because there were so many family members from out of the area and unfamiliar with the streets of San Francisco, Lucille arranged for a bus to take us all from the motels at which we were staying to the wedding, then on a short tour of San Francisco and on to the reception dinner.

The wedding was held at the groom’s church on Diamond Street in San Francisco itself. When we got there, it was clear that not only finding the place would have been a problem, but parking many vehicles would have been quite a chore. The bus was the only way to go!

Then, while the photographers did their thing with the wedding party, the bus was off. Through the twisty, turny, hill streets of San Francisco and up to Twin Peaks for a view of the city.

And it was a heck of a view. A little lot windy, but one heck of a view!
