    Once again hanging out at SJC waiting to head home. I haven’t been north of Palo Alto on Bay Area trips in 2.5 years. This time was actually south to Santa Cruz. So much nicer than going north towards SF. Though to be fair current gig was result of 2017 excursion into SF.

        O that trip (stayed in shitty hotel on edge of tenderloin) I decided life is too short to spend any more of it in SF. was think SF will go through a few decades of blighted collapse like Detroit and then come back as urban farming region full of mystic post-apocalyptic cults.

        Kinda like how Trantor collapsed but 2nd foundation was hiding in ruins among simple farmers.

        I need to fly in/out of Oakland and spend some time in east bay next time though. Never have a good aka paid excuse to do that though.

        Also SJC is genuinely a pleasant airport.

        Hah - I am doing the same soon - first trip to the Bay Area since 2002 where I won’t be staying in San Francisco; only downside is I will probably need a car thru the time I’m there and haven’t had a car in the US for more than a day since in early 2017

        You could avoid the whole area and fly to Monterey. A little pricier, though.
