Finally Summer Arrived in San Francisco Bay Area

San Francisco Bay Area is a cool oasis in summer, even too cold.  A famous statement attributed to the wit Mark Twain was that the coldest winter he ever had was the summer in San Francisco.

In late September, suddenly, it warmed up and finally summer arrived, sparklingly:

PS: a confession: These pictures were taken in mid-August. We did have beautiful summer days in real summer time, but truly, they were rare.
