pre-opera tail gate

Last night Nathan and I showed up early to have a tail-gate picnic, our first time embracing this S.F. opera tradition. We shoved our outdoor folding table and folding chairs into the car, packed up a bottle of wine, a thermos of esrepsso and lots of food from Whole Foods. It was fun - sit there in the parking lot, with the mountains all around, eating cheese and bread and grilled portabella, and seeing all these other people doing the same.
