In addition to having an impressive roster of companies with great work opportunities – Alameda also has thriving neighborhoods with beautifully maintained Victorian houses. The College of Alameda is also a big draw and community resource. Watch to learn more about this incredible city.
SF Bay - Sausalito Sailing Guide Ep. 1
Salty Posse sails to Sausalito, CA for a weekend of pure fun. The summertime winds made the ride across the San Francisco and the ride back exhilarating. Don't worry, baby Kai was safe below deck. On the way back home we even saw a whale and caught it on camera. Sausalito is a great weekend get away for weekend sailors in the SF Bay and we highly recommend it for an enjoyable relaxing weekend.
ABANDONED NAVAL BARRACKS IN SAN FRANCISCO (RADIATION!!!)
Robby & I weren’t too prepared for this spot since it indeed was a last minute research. Masks are definitely recommended!! Stay tuned for a part 2 of this location! This Navy Base/Naval Shipyard is full of abandoned buildings everywhere but the barracks caught our eye as it does indeed look like a massive hotel from far away.

Angel Island Primer: Knights In The House of Jade
Before the United States Immigration Station at Angel Island on San Francisco Bay opened in 1910, Chinese subject to the Exclusion Act of 1882 were held at the Pacific Mail Steamship Company detention shed at Pier 40, San Francisco. This video attempts to show the relationship of The Shed to the later Immigration Service detention barracks at Angel Island (The Wood House; The House of Jade). The video concludes with the relocation of the Immigration Station from Angel Island to Silver Avenue, San Francisco, in 1940, and the in-custody death of Hom Wong Shee at the Station's Silver Avenue site in 1941.
I have sourced historic references for this video from Immigration at the Golden Gate: Passenger Ships, Exclusion, and Angel Island, by Robert Eric Barde (2008), and from Island: Poetry and History of Chinese Immigrants on Angel Island 1910-1940, by Him Mark Lai, Genny Lim, and Judy Yung (1980)
Angel Island Tour Part 1 of 2
We took the 1 hour tram around Angel Island to see all it has to offer. It was very formative, just didn't like to two guides that handled the ride. The driver was learning and was a terrible driver. His mentor was mean and wouldn't let anyone take a bathroom break. The ride was really rough the tram had little or no suspension. The information and sights where very interesting. You can hike and picnic on the island if you get there early enough. We only had an hour before the ferry left.

Hog Island Oyster Farm: North of San Francisco on Tomales Bay

Wiki:
European explorers flying the flags of Spain and of England explored the Pacific Coast of California beginning in the mid-16th century. Francisco de Ulloa explored the west coast of present-day Mexico including the Gulf of California, proving that Baja California was a peninsula,[8] but in spite of his discoveries the myth persisted in European circles that California was an island.
Rumors of fabulously wealthy cities located somewhere along the California coast, as well as a possible Northwest Passage that would provide a much shorter route to the Indies, provided an incentive to explore further.

Bird's eye view of San Francisco, Cal , from a balloon 1902
The first view seen in the film, looking northwest, shows visitors in the makeshift fairground just south of Market Street between 12th and 11th streets [Frame: 0105]. (South Van Ness Avenue cuts through the site today.) Note the whitewashed grounds fences and ticketbooths [0319]. As the balloon drifts northeast, sheds can be seen as well as a flock of pigeons flying across a backyard [0755]. A row of typical 1860s houses lines Eleventh Street and a group of pedestrians watches from the far side of the street [1222]. At far right is the Episcopal Church of the Advent. The low building along 11th Street is the Siebe and Green Bill Posters Company, with posters visible along its side [1375]. Farther northeast is a series of buildings facing Market Street; one has a wall advertisement for Nathan Hale Havana cigars [1432]. The second segment [1561] is a high-altitude view (approximately 1,000 feet) looking north to Van Ness Avenue between Hayes Street (upper cross-street) and Fell Street (lower cross-street) [1582]. The dormitory of St. Ignatius College is at upper left, and lumber and coal yards are at center. Scattered groups of row houses are also seen. (The area shown is now a built-up business district just south of the San Francisco Civic Center.) Broad Van Ness Avenue serves as an approximate divider of older San Francisco (at right) from the younger Western Addition at left. The third section of the film [2176] begins at maximum altitude (1,500 feet) and descends slowly. The opening view is northward, with Polk Street at the center, Larkin Street at right, and Van Ness Avenue at left [2270]. Polk and Larkin streets climb Russian Hill in the background. Angel Island, in San Francisco Bay, is vaguely visible in the distance [2528]. The camera swings slowly to the west (left). In the background is Holladay Hill (the present site of Lafayette Park) [2633], and the adjacent eastern portion of the ridge of fashionable Pacific Heights. The Hayes Valley neighborhood lies in the foreground. The camera swings west across Franklin and Gough streets, then pauses, centered on Jefferson Square [2819], between Laguna and Gough streets. Swinging back eastward, the camera captures St. Ignatius Church and the adjacent college (to become the University of San Francisco on a later site to the west), on Hayes Street [3378]. The site is now occupied by San Francisco's Davies Symphony Hall. The balloon descends vertically between Van Ness Avenue and Polk Street, looking north over the city toward the future site of City Hall (upper part of view) [4117]. The camera then drifts back to the west. The film concludes with the descent into the fairgrounds looking northwest over the roofs of Hayes Valley [4210] in late afternoon light before the Van Ness Family Hotel obscures our view [4426]. Descending farther, a row of connected shops and restaurants is seen along Market Street, adjacent to the fairgrounds [4638]. The film ends with a view of the fairground fences and waiting visitors.
