It looks like just any other light pole on the Golden Gate Bridge, but this is the infamous pole 69 -- almost exactly midway across the span, facing Alcatraz and the city of San Francisco. Pole 69 is the most popular location for Golden Gate Bridge suicide attempts.
A busy morning at the St. Francis Fountain, in San Francisco's Mission District.
A perfectly-preserved 1918 diner in the heart of San Francisco's Mission District.
Hot Dog Johnny's, along Route 46 in Buttzville (heh heh!), New Jersey.
Route 46 was a major east-west throughfare before Interstate 80 was built, and Hot Dog Johnny's, which opened in 1944, is a pristine reminder of what roadside architecture and cuisine were like back in the day.

A frosted mug of birch beer; hot dog with mustard, onions, and relish; and an order of french fries, at the picnic tables at Hot Dog Johnny's, in Buttzville, New Jersey. (Sorry, no sauerkraut served here!)

The Lone Palm bar, in San Francisco's Mission District.
Where every drink is served film noir and straight up. The Lone Palm experience begins as soon as you see the neon facade, and it usually carries through rest of the evening. It never disappoints.
The HiDive bar on the San Francisco waterfront, just south of the Bay Bridge. Kind of divey on the outside; kind of schwank on the inside.
