Funny about the ZIP codes – when we were going through my grandma’s things, we came across some letters from when she was living in SF – the letter was from her mom or sister who was living on the Peninsula at the time. Anyway, it was addressed to her on Valley St. and it simply said ‘City’. Because the Cliff Clavin’s of the day knew what that meant…
Happy Anniversary you guys!
Mutter … mutter … (eyes roll) …
