One of my favorite things to do. Just hop on the "N" MUNI Outbound at Duboce Park and take it all the way to the beach. Bring a book or hand out on the sand, and then go in for a coffee!

Essentials

For your basic groceries, go up the hill to Haight St Market. There are closer markets to home (Falletti's or Bi-Rite), but they're overpriced. Okay, Bi-rite has good ice cream.

A good place to get your produce. The people who work there are gems. Give them a smile! Also, give them cash. They don't accept credit card. (I know, is this the '70s?)

Okay, clearly I love to buy produce and groceries. A great place to get them is on Clement Street. Indulge in California-grown clementines, kiwis, and root vegetables in winter, stone fruits and avocados in the spring and summer.

Parks & Nature

I head up to Buena Vista for a brisk morning walk or jog and follow trails to the top. It's a lovely place to be. I'd only suggest it during the daytime, as its a bit more isolated.

As of writing (Nov 2016), it's still under renovation. But when it's open, I do most of my reading in Alamo Square. It's beautiful in the mornings, windy in the evenings. See the Painted Ladies!
