Running Amok in San Francisco

I had a wonderful first visit to the city. Highlights: saw Olafur Eliasson's installation at the SFMoMA; had a picnic in glorious weather in Dolores Park (on the aptly-named "Hipster Hill"); drove up to Carmel Village (smaller and less touristy than Carmel proper), stopped at a few vineyards on the way, and ate a full-on gourmet dinner at the Cachagua General Store (complements of the catering company A Movable Feast) in front of a trailer park up in the mountains beyond Carmel, complete with lots of free, scrumptious wine from the neighbor's vineyard; almost got arrested on the Golden Gate Bridge helping a friend with an art project, and got written up in the SF Weekly (print and online) because of it: story (and video) here.
