Golden Gate Park
What's larger than New York's Central Park, once consisted of sand dunes, is now covered with more than one million trees and is bison-friendly?

This foresight proved invaluable, as 75,000 people now visit the park on an average weekend.

    I love Golden Gate Park. I used to hang around this park during my hippie days. I also used to hang around Haight and Ashbury. I sure miss those days. That was when music was music.
