Tunnel Tops and the Wave Organ

Presidio's Tunnel Tops is no longer the new kid on the block, but it is still a magnificent space with world class views. This Friday roam will take us down from there to the waterfront, and along to the wave organ, another remarkable space to sit and enjoy the elements. We will return on an inland route, through the gardens and back ways of the Presidio. This is almost completely flat, but we will probably walk along the sand for a part of the time. *Bringing water, snacks, and layers for all the microclimates is the way to go.* *These roams are offered by donation. They are one way I am able to pay my rent in San Francisco.* *Punctuality is always appreciated, for the sake of everybody's time. Please send a message on the app before the start if you are running late, and we will either wait (up to ten minutes) of I will direct you on how to catch up. Once we get underway I have to focus on those who are there, and most likely won't respond.* *Generally half the people who sign up don't actually show up on the day. I do track flakiness and remove people who have a poor attendance record. It is discourteous to those on the waitlist who would like to attend.* *Sending me a message explaining that you can't make it is always appreciated.*

Brisk Walk & Shop--SW corner Ordway & Marin, Albany, 11a

We are a warm and friendly group of walkers who like to get a really good cardio workout. We meet at the South West corner of Ordway and Marin. We walk briskly up to Marin circle, and then continue at a moderately fast pace, as far as the top of Marin. If there's a garage sale along the route, we may stop for a few minutes to take a breather and check it out. We welcome newcomers, and often have walkers who walk just part of the route. Over a number of weeks, you can build up the stamina to get to the top of Marin!

Studio share price and monthly assessment are 75% of the 1BR rates.
