THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE
"Into the clouds my towers soar . . ."
- Joseph Strauss
Today is the anniversary of the opening of the Golden Gate Bridge in
San Francisco. On this day in 1937 thousands of people were waiting
to dance/ skip/ run over the amazing structure.
Joseph Strauss was the chief engineer for the bridge -- and a poet who
wrote about it.
Maybe you once sang the praises of California while visualizing
that Golden Gate opening to you?
Photographers love the challenge
of that International Orange color.

Happy Birthday! today to poet Linda Pastan, who writes
about life experiences of daily life. Look up her poetry and enjoy.
