Goin' to San Francisco (with or without flowers in your hair) and want some fresh crab?

Here's the corner:

Well, as you can see on the sign in one picture, "$11.95/lb, best price on the wharf". And it must be true because the other cash register says the unit price (1 lb.) is $12.50.

great pics BT!
Makes me miss SF. What a trip it was.
great price too for fresh dungeness.

wish I could see the crab pics...................... BT pay your photobucket bill$$$$$

It's a free service and I haven't added any pics recently. I don't know what's wrong so I don't know how to fix it. Since they allow so many pix per month, hoping it'll fix itself at the beginning of June.

BT so good to see you back on campus..............
I sure missed you. there's just no one as good as you to spar with..................
your quite the adversary.

Now that your back I was wondering did they let you keep the orange jump suit?

Sizz, he was in Arizona, they issue pink down there.

BT, just funnin with ya.

^^^Rumors to the contrary, they have internet even in AZ (and I have an account there).

No, you asked and I'll answer honestly. I just found myself repeating myself too much. Frankly, I had talked too much about every restaurant (and food) I ever even thought of eating at and read many times about most of the others. I gave myself a break. And while I was breaking, I found a web forum that discusses my other passion, building tall buildings, and got hooked there--almost to the point of obsession. I do think the internet can be an addiction. Anyway, yes, I'm back.

I wish the photos I posted were.

Problem solved.

Good, now post the pics

The wharf has always been one of my favorite places. Good seafood as I recall. Aliato's (SIC) use to be down there. I enjoyed all the mimes and street preformers. Great scenery as as you indicated, the crab has always been famous.

Great pix! I remember (yes, ages ago!) when fresh crab was a buck a pound.

P.S. If you're in the Fishermans Wharf / Ghirardelli Square area, watch out for the "Bushman". He will scare the bejesus out of you!
