Bekah, I'm confused. If you were driving north -- "up from San Jose" -- the
houses and lettering are on the west side, but they are on the left side of
the road. Candlestick and SFO are on the right, close to the water (or on
the water, in the case of SFO runways). Am I way off base?
Bekah, I am not trying to correct you. Just age-induced memory insecurity.
