California's Bridges: Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco Bay (3)

1987 (37.818 deg, -122.478 deg.) Golden Gate Bridge

Mark Twain apparently never said that the coldest winter he ever spent was a summer in San Francisco. However, the sentiment nonetheless rings true. This photo, taken more than twenty years ago, shows my daughter's enjoying a pleasant summer's day by the Golden Gate Bridge. 

Walking on the Golden Gate Bridge, I often see dense clouds sitting just outside the Golden Gate while the sun is shining in the Bay. After the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, I volunteered to work on the repairs of the Bay Bridge (in late October). I spent a month on the bridge, but I could never get warm, despite having grown up in Michigan.
