Here is the fist of two sets taken during a San Francisco Bay cruise my
bride of four days and I took on 11/02/89. Still have the slides, camera
and the girl.

My wife is a fan of the Golden Gate Bridge and she wanted to sail underneath
it. We left the pier in sunshine and headed around Alcatraz and then for
the bridge. By the time we got near the bridge, the fog was so heavy, you
could not see but a few feet in front of the boat. After nearly cutting a
catamaran in half, the captain said enough is enough and we turned back
before colliding with another ship or the bridge. Never did get to go under
the bridge. Back at the pier, we were treated to a beautiful view of the
bridge as the fog had lifted. My wife still complains about that to this
day. Guess I'll have to take her back again.

Thanks Stephen, I'll keep that in mind (if I still have one left by then!).
