#Memories

I've spent time in #ShanghaiKellys, one of the few surviving corner bars that use to be located throughout The City.

I remember it as the #TenderTrap when the #BroadwayBowl (it's a condo now) was still operating on Broadway between it & the #HelenWillsPlayground because I grew up on the same block on Pacific right behind the tennis court in the playground.

If you like the vide of the old corner bars in SF as I do, two others located close by are the #BellTower at Jackson & Polk and the #HydeOut at Hyde & California. The HydeOut is my favorite of the 3 because of the upstairs seating where you can sit & drink & watch & hear the cable cars, pass by the corner.

I watched this 5 years ago. I’m still quite smitten with Mercedezz. those are her kids in the video. the little girl is a cutie but the boy’s got some pizzazz. I wonder what he’s doing now that he’s (at a guess) in his early teens. thought y’all might like the video.
